Party or movie night food doesn’t get much better or fun than these cheesy sheet pan nachos. Here, this ooey and gooey Mexican classic gets a flavor boost from tons of fresh veggies, pickled jalapeños, and seasoned chicken breast. For simplicity and ease, serve them straight of out of the pan and to make clean-up effortless line the baking sheet with either aluminum foil or parchment paper before assembling them. You can use rotisserie chicken from the deli or any leftover chicken you may have in the refrigerator that needs to be used up. Serve with lime wedges, if desired.
