Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 bag tortilla chips (sturdy, restaurant-style)
  • 2 cups cooked shredded chicken (rotisserie or fajita-seasoned)
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 green bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 small red onion, diced
  • 1 packet fajita seasoning mix
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 cups shredded Mexican cheese blend
  • ½ cup shredded mozzarella (for extra melt)
  • ½ cup fresh pico de gallo
  • 1 jalapeño, thinly sliced
  • ¼ cup chopped cilantro
  • ½ cup guacamole (optional, for topping)
  • Sour cream or crema (optional drizzle)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F.
  2. In a skillet over medium heat, add olive oil, sliced peppers, and onion. Sprinkle fajita seasoning and cook until soft and lightly charred.
  3. Toss shredded chicken into the same skillet with the veggies. Heat through.
  4. Spread half the chips on a large oven-safe dish. Add half the chicken-veggie mix and cheese. Repeat layers.
  5. Bake for 8–10 minutes, until the cheese is fully melted and bubbly.
  6. Top with pico de gallo, jalapeños, guacamole, cilantro, and sour cream if using. Serve immediately.
