Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray.
  • Place corn tortilla triangles evenly over the baking sheet so none overlap. Spray the tortilla triangles with cooking spray.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes or until chips are crisp and golden brown.
  • In a small bowl stir together the salt, pepper, garlic powder, cumin, and paprika.
  • Sprinkle the chicken thigh pieces evenly with the spice mix.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Add seasoned chicken pieces to the skillet and cook for about 2 - 3 minutes. Turn and cook for another minute.
  • Add chopped onion and diced jalapenos to the chicken. Cook for another 2 - 3 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, place poblano peppers on a baking sheet sprayed with cooking spray. Spray the poblano peppers with cooking spray and place them on the baking sheet.
  • Cook the poblano peppers in a preheated oven at 450 degrees F for about 10 - 15 minutes turning once until the skin is blistered on all sides.
  • Place the poblano peppers in a large bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Allow the peppers to cool for 15 minutes.
  • Peel the outer skins of the poblano peppers. Slice the pepper lengthwise and remove seeds.
  • Spoon chicken into each poblano pepper until filled. Don't overfill.
  • Sprinkle each poblano pepper with Sargento shredded 4-Cheese Mexican Blend.
  • Add in 4 - 6 tortilla "chips" inside the poblano peppers on the sides.
  • Bake in a preheated oven at 400 degrees for 7 or 8 minutes or until the Chicken Nachos Stuffed Poblanos are heated through and the cheese is melted.
