Directions

Prep 20 minCook 27 min
  1. 1

    Heat a thin film of oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken breast on both sides until lightly browned, 2–3 minutes per side.

  2. 2

    Stir in the taco seasoning and chicken broth. Bring to a gentle simmer, cover, and cook over medium-low until the chicken is cooked through and tender, about 20 minutes.

  3. 3

    Transfer the chicken to a bowl and shred with two forks. If there is excess cooking liquid, mix in just enough to keep the chicken juicy; reserve the rest for another use.

  4. 4

    Arrange the tortilla chips on a rimmed baking sheet. Scatter the shredded chicken evenly over the chips, then crumble the queso fresco generously over the top.

  5. 5

    Broil on the top rack until the cheese softens and the chips at the edges begin to toast, 2–3 minutes. Garnish with chopped scallions and serve immediately.
