  • Preheat oven to 350° F.
  • In mixing bowl, combine chicken and lime juice, salt and pepper to taste.
  • In skillet, heat 1 1/2 tablespoons oil over medium-high heat until hot. Sauté bell peppers until crisp-tender; approximately 3 minutes; transfer to a bowl.
  • Heat 1/2 tablespoons oil in the skillet and cook garlic, cumin, and oregano; stir approximately 1 minute.
  • Sir in beans and cook until heated through; season with salt and pepper.
  • Layer tortilla chips on the bottom of the baking dish, then sautéed peppers, beans, chicken, and cheese; all in that order. Repeat, starting with a layer of tortilla chips.
  • Place in the oven and bake until cheese is melted.
  • While the nachos are baking, mix the sour cream and pickled jalapeños in a small dish. Serve as a sauce for the nachos. Add more jalapeños to reach desired heat.
This casserole-like method of preparing nachos is so easy to do and so delicious. Top it with a jalapeño sour cream mixture for a terrific blend of Southwestern flavors. This dip recipe is perfect for football parties or any special celebration with friends and family.
