Ingredients

Base

  • 2 cups air fried potato chips or packaged unsalted potato chips

Buffalo Chicken

  • 1/2 pound cooked and shredded or chopped chicken
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons (1/8 cup) hot sauce (such as Frank’s Red Hot)

Cheese and Garnish

  • 3 to 4 ounces shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 ounces blue cheese crumbles
  • 2 green onions, sliced

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit to prepare for baking the nachos.
  2. Prepare Buffalo Chicken: In a bowl, combine the cooked shredded or chopped chicken with olive oil and hot sauce. Mix thoroughly to coat the chicken evenly with the buffalo sauce.
  3. Assemble Nachos: Arrange the potato chips in a single layer on a baking sheet. Evenly spread the buffalo chicken mixture over the chips, then sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese and blue cheese crumbles on top.
  4. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the cheese has melted completely and the nachos are warmed through.
  5. Garnish and Serve: Remove the nachos from the oven and garnish with sliced green onions before serving hot.

Notes

  • You can use either air fried potato chips or store-bought unsalted chips depending on preference.
  • Adjust the amount of hot sauce to control the spiciness.
  • For a crispier chip base, air fry the potato slices yourself if starting from fresh potatoes.
  • Serve immediately for best texture and flavor.
  • Substitute blue cheese with ranch dressing for a milder flavor.
