BUFFALO CHICKEN POTATO SKIN NACHOS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Place the potatoes on the prepared baking sheet. Pierce all over with a fork. Rub with 1 tablespoon canola oil and season with 1 teaspoon salt.
• Bake the potatoes for 60-70 minutes, until they are soft enough to gently squeeze with an oven mitt. Remove the potatoes from the oven and let sit for 15-20 minutes, until cool enough to handle.
• Cut the potatoes in half lengthwise and scoop out the insides, leaving a ⅛-inch-thick border of potato flesh around the edges. Cut each piece in half again lengthwise and once more crosswise to create 2-inch-long triangles.
• Arrange the potato triangles skin-side-up in a single layer on the baking sheet and brush with the melted butter. Flip skin-side-down and brush the insides with melted butter, then season with salt and ¼ teaspoon black pepper.
• Bake for 12-15 minutes, until the insides are golden brown. Flip the potatoes skin-side-up again and bake for 8-10 minutes more, until the skins are crispy.
• In a medium microwave-safe bowl, combine the buffalo sauce and butter. Microwave for 30-60 seconds, until the butter is melted. Whisk well to combine. Add the cayenne and white vinegar and whisk to combine.
• Season the chicken breasts on both sides with 1 teaspoon salt, pepper to taste, and the garlic powder.
• Heat the remaining tablespoon of canola oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add the chicken breasts and cook without moving until browned, 4-5 minutes. Flip the chicken and cook for another 3-4 minutes, until browned on the other side. Pour in the chicken broth, reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and cook for 10-12 minutes more, or until the chicken is tender and cooked through.
• Transfer the chicken to a medium bowl and shred with an electric hand mixer on medium-low speed, 1-2 minutes. (Alternatively, use 2 forks to shred the chicken.) Add the buffalo sauce and ½ cup shredded Mexican cheese and mix to combine.
• Make the pico de gallo: In a medium bowl, combine the tomatoes, onion, jalapeño, garlic, cilantro, salt, pepper, and lime juice and stir to combine.
• Set the broiler to high.
• Arrange the potato wedges around the edges and over the bottom of an 8-inch cast-iron skillet. Top with the buffalo chicken and sprinkle the remaining 1 cup shredded Mexican cheese on top.
• Broil the nachos for 2-3 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbling.
• Top the nachos with guacamole, the pico de gallo, blue cheese dressing, and cilantro. Serve immediately.

BUFFALO CHICKEN NACHOS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• For the Buffalo sauce: To a medium saute pan over medium heat, add the oil, butter, jalapeno and garlic. Allow the butter to melt, and lightly saute the garlic and jalapeno for about 2 minutes. Stir in the hot sauce, chicken broth, lime juice and vinegar and bring to a simmer. Season with salt and pepper. Cover and keep warm until ready to use.
• For the dry rub: Combine the smoked paprika, cayenne, celery salt, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Mix to blend.
• Combine the chicken and 1/4 cup of the Buffalo sauce in a bowl; toss to coat. Transfer the chicken to a wire rack set over a baking sheet and sprinkle with the dry rub. Bake until the chicken is cooked through, about 15 minutes. Remove from the oven, allow to cool a bit, then chop the chicken into bite-size pieces. Set aside. (Leave the oven at 350 degrees F for the nachos.)
• For the pita chips: While the chicken is baking, fill a deep, heavy pot with 4 inches of oil and heat the oil to 350 degrees F over moderate heat. In batches, fry the pita wedges until golden brown and crispy, 1 to 2 minutes. Drain on paper towels and immediately sprinkle with salt.
• For the blue cheese topping: To a small saucepan over medium heat, add the milk and 1/2 cup of the smoked blue cheese. Allow the cheese to melt into the milk, then transfer the mixture to a bowl along with the remaining blue cheese and the mayonnaise, sour cream and chives. Season with salt and pepper.
• To assemble: In a large roasting pan, spread out half of the pita chips in an even layer. Top with half of the chopped chicken, half of the remaining Buffalo sauce, half of the blue cheese topping and 1/2 cup of the shredded mozzarella.
