We all love nachos, am I right! They are the perfect family dinner recipe, game day appetizer, or a delicious party snack food.

These oven baked nachos are sure to become a crowd pleaser.

There are a couple things that make these sheet pan nachos a breeze to make. You can use a rotisserie chicken, your favorite store-bought BBQ sauce and Queso Blanco. Top the BBQ chicken nachos with some of your favorite toppings such as red onions, pickled jalapenos, or even crumbled bacon bits. It’s a perfect recipe to customize to your families liking.

Can I Reheat Oven Baked Nachos?

These nachos are best when eaten right out of the oven. You can make the BBQ chicken ahead of time and keep it covered in the fridge for a couple days. You don’t want to assemble the nachos too far in advance or you will risk the tortilla chips getting soggy.

Why Make Nachos On A Sheet Pan?

Making nachos on a sheet pan is one of my favorite ways to make nachos. You can evenly layer the chips and toppings so that every layer is bursting with flavor. The nachos and topping will cook more evenly, and the cheese gets nice and melty. I also love how you can customize the nachos to everyone’s liking.

Tips For Making BBQ Chicken Nachos

1-You can use rotisserie chicken, prebaked chicken, or place chicken breasts in an instant pot and shred.

2-Be sure to spread the chips and toppings evenly so that every bite is loaded with flavor.

3-Baked nachos in a preheated oven and with the oven rack placed in the middle.
