Layered Chicken Nachos

My friend, Karey, shared this recipe. It's pretty easy to whip up and oh, so good!! (See Original recipe here.) 

3 Tbsp. lime juice
2 Tbsp. olive oil
1 tsp. ground cumin
1 tsp. garlic powder
2 cups cooked and shredded chicken (canned chicken works in a pinch!)
Salt and pepper to taste
Large bag of tortilla chips
one 16-oz. can refried beans
2 cups shredded cheese
one 16-oz. jar salsa
sour cream

Heat oven to 425º. Wisk together lime juice, olive oil, cumin and garlic. Toss with chicken in a bowl and season with salt and pepper.

Make a layer of tortilla chips to cover the bottom of a 9x13 baking dish. Evenly spoon refried beans over chips (use entire can). Top with half the chicken and sprinkle with 1 cup shredded cheese. Add another layer of tortilla chips. Add remaining chicken. Spoon half the salsa even over chips. Top with remaining cheese.

Bake nachos until heated through and cheese is melted and bubbling (15-20 minutes). Serve hot with remaining salsa and sour cream.
