Ingredients Used in Air Fryer Chicken Nachos–
Cooked chicken-Today, I used leftover cooked chicken meat. But you can switch that out for anything you like, ground beef would work well, as well as shredded pork or beef.
Beans: Today, I used a black bean, since I had a couple of cans in the pantry, but other beans that work well would be pinto or refried beans.
Cheese: Can never have enough cheese on nachos, I used both queso and shredded cheddar cheese.
Chips: I used a plain tortilla chip since we would be adding all of the toppings. But feel free to use your favorite.
Other Toppings: I added guacamole, sour cream, sliced tomatoes, sliced jalapenos, sliced olives, anything works here, just keep on adding your favorites.
