Time 35m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

cooking spray
1 (10 ounce) bag tortilla chips, or to taste
1 cup barbeque sauce, or to taste
4 cups shredded roasted chicken breasts
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
¼ teaspoon ground cumin
¼ teaspoon chili powder
2 ½ cups shredded Cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil; coat with cooking spray.
  • Combine chicken, barbeque sauce, lime juice, cumin, and chili powder in a saucepan over medium heat. Reduce heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until chicken is heated through, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat.
  • Spread a single layer of tortilla chips on the prepared baking sheet. Top with 1/2 the chicken mixture and 1 1/4 cups Cheddar cheese. Place another layer of tortilla chips over cheese and top with remaining chicken mixture and cheese.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until Cheddar cheese is melted and golden brown, about 10 minutes.
