Ingredients

3 tablespoons canola oil
6 green onions, sliced, white parts and tops separated
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 shredded, cooked, whole chicken breast
salt and pepper to taste
1 cup salsa
0.5 (12 ounce) package tortilla chips
1 (8 ounce) package shredded Cheddar/Monterey Jack cheese blend
0.5 large tomato, diced

Instructions

Gather all of your ingredients. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Heat oil in a large 12-inch skillet over medium heat. Add the white parts of the green onions and garlic; cook and stir until the onions are tender.
Mix in the shredded chicken and season with salt and pepper to your liking; toss to coat everything evenly. Stir in your favorite salsa.
Arrange the tortilla chips on a large baking sheet. Spoon the chicken mixture over the tortilla chips; top with shredded cheese and diced tomato.
Bake in the preheated oven until the cheese is melted and bubbly, about 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with the green onion tops before serving immediately.
