More About This Recipe

  • Though nachos are a traditional Mexican snack, this nachos grande recipe takes the concept of nachos and reinvents it with the help of a classic American dish: Buffalo chicken wings. Doused in a hot sauce and served with blue cheese, ranch and celery sticks, Buffalo wings are a staple appetizer in many American households (especially during football season!). This buffalo chicken nachos recipe is the best of both recipes. Crunchy tortilla chips get piled on a giant platter with shredded rotisserie chicken, buffalo wing sauce, blue cheese and mozzarella cheese. The result is your new favorite appetizer! Though this recipe isn’t your typical nachos recipe, that’s part of the fun. Nachos can be customized to so many tastes, and we have a recipe for everyone.
