Cheesy BBQ Chicken Zucchini Nachos Recipe

  • 3 medium-sized to large zucchini

  • Shredded Mexican or Monterey Jack cheese, 3/4 cup
  • 1/3 cup crumbled blue cheese
  • 1 can of drained black beans

  • 1 teaspoon of minced red onion in blu cheese dressing

Instructions

Cheesy BBQ Chicken Zucchini Nachos Recipe

  1. Heat the grill to medium-high heat and the oven to 425 degrees.
  2. Clean the zucchini and dry it. Divide into rounds of 1/4 inch. Toss with olive oil, a pinch of salt and pepper, and garlic salt in a medium bowl.
  3. Flip and grill for another 3 minutes per side until grill marks appear. Transfer to a baking sheet.
  4. Combine the chicken and barbecue sauce in another bowl until the sauce is evenly distributed.
  5. Take the zucchini chips out of the oven. Shredded cheese, barbecue chicken, blue cheese crumbles, black beans, diced tomatoes, and grilled corn are added on top.
  6. Bake for 7 to 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, in the oven. For the final minute, I like to broil my oven to get the cheese to be nice and bubbly!
  7. Serve with additional drizzles of barbecue sauce and bleu cheese dressing, as well as cilantro, onions, and diced tomatoes!
  8. You are free to customize them with any additional toppings you have on hand: avocado, chopped green onion, and lettuce
