Each one of my kids have their favorite dish, you know that one that they just love and could eat every week. Well my 9 year old son is obsessed with this dish. He loves nacho chicken and he gets super excited when I am making it (sometimes he doesn’t leave my side while I am cooking it because he likes it that much!). This recipe is a nice go to recipe because there are not very many ingredients and the ingredients are easy to always have on hand.
Just for fun, here is a video to show you how to make nacho chicken with an Instant Pot 🙂

Nacho Chicken
Prep Time 25 minutes
Cook Time 25 minutes
Total Time 50 minutes
Servings 8 people
Ingredients
- 1 bag tortilla chips
- 3-4 chicken breasts cooked, diced
- 1 can cream of chicken soup
- 1 can evaporated milk 5 oz can
- 3-4 green onions diced
- 1 cup fiesta cheese
- 1 can diced green chile peppers
Instructions
-
Combine soup, onions, chile peppers, milk and 2/3 cup of the cheese in a bowl and mix.
-
Place crushed tortilla chips onto the bottom of a casserole dish. Then add 1/2 the chicken and 1/2 the sauce.

Add another layer of chips, chicken and sauce into casserole dish.
-
Add remaining tortilla chips and 1/3 cup of cheese.
-
Bake in oven at 350* for 30 minutes.
This meal is great by itself or you can easily add salsa or tomatoes with it to give it a little more flavor. Another thing that you can do is add rice to it, that is a great way to make it go further (like if you are making it for more than just one family, or a really big family). We are a family of 7 and this feeds us all well and my kids go for seconds too! It’s just so good :). Also my favorite way to cook in the chicken is in the Instant Pot, you can see how to do that here.
