Made this up and the family liked it. It will be spicy or not so spicy depending on the BBQ sauce you use! Ingredients:
1 lb leftover cooked chicken (cut up or shredded) |
1 tablespoon olive oil |
1 small onion, chopped |
1/2 red bell pepper, chopped |
1 garlic clove, minced |
3/4-1 cup bottled barbecue sauce |
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar |
2 tablespoons brown sugar |
1/2 cup water |
1/2-1 cup shredded cheddar cheese or 1/2-1 cup monterey jack cheese |
sour cream (optional) or plain yogurt (optional) |
Directions:
1. Chop or shred the chicken and set aside.
2. In a large skillet, saute onion and bell pepper until soft. Add garlic at the last 1-2 minutes.
3. Add reserved chicken, barbecue sauce, vinegar, brown sugar, and water and simmer until heated through (maybe 5 minutes or so).
4. Either add the cheddar cheese at this point and stir until melted, OR save to sprinkle on top of chicken.
5. Give each person some tortilla chips and top with chicken mixture. Add optional cheese.
6. Top with some sour cream or plain yogurt, if desired.
