Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup Extra Light Olive Oil
• 2 tablespoons Ancho Chili Powder
• 1 tablespoon Cumin
• 1/2 teaspoon Kosher Salt
• Juice of Two Limes
• 1-1/2 pounds Boneless-skinless Chicken Thighs {or breasts}
• 1 handful Fresh Cilantro
• 1 large bag Whole Grain Tortilla Chips
• 2 cups Freshly Grated Cheddar Cheese

• 1 cup Canned Black Beans, drained and rinsed

Toppings:

• Sliced Green Onions
• Sour Cream

Directions:

1. FOR THE CHICKEN: Combine the olive oil, ancho chili powder, cumin, salt and lime juice. Stir and pour over the chicken. Toss and let the chicken sit while you preheat your grill.
2. Grill the chicken on medium-high for about 6-8 minutes a side or until fully cooked. Remove and let cool a bit. Sprinkle the chicken with a handful of fresh cilantro before chopping it into small bits.
3. FOR THE NACHOS: Scatter a layer of whole grain tortilla chips on the bottom of 4 oven-safe baking dishes. Top the chips with a little grated cheddar cheese, chopped chicken, a spoonful of grilled corn salsa, black beans and then repeat with another layer of chips, cheese, chicken, salsa, beans and a final layer of cheddar cheese.
4. Bake in a preheated 375 degrees until the cheese is melted and the chips are a toasty golden color.
5. Remove and let cool before topping and enjoying!
