Method

5 steps
  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 450 degrees F and line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.

  2. 2

    Arrange half the chips in a single layer on the pan and top with half the chicken and half the cheese.

  3. 3

    Layer with remaining chips, chicken, and cheese, then sprinkle with black beans.

  4. 4

    Bake in the center of the oven until cheese melts and chip edges brown.

  5. 5

    Top with olives, green chiles, tomato, green onion, radishes, jalapeño, cilantro, salsa, and sour cream before serving.

Tips

Tip 1

Use quality rotisserie chicken for best flavor and texture.

Tip 2

Watch timing carefully at 450 degrees to prevent chips from burning.

Tip 3

Add jalapeño and other fresh toppings after baking to maintain texture.

Good to Know

Storage

Leftovers best consumed immediately; store covered in refrigerator up to 2 days, though chips will soften.

Make Ahead

Prep all toppings and grate cheese up to 4 hours ahead. Assemble and bake just before serving.

Serve With

Serve hot directly from the sheet pan with extra sour cream and salsa on the side.
