Ingredients
  

  • 3/4 cup of Greek chicken cubed
  • 1/2 cup of cherry tomatoes diced
  • 1/4 cup of kalamata olives pitted, chopped
  • 3 slices of pita bread cut into wedges
  • 1 shallot minced
  • 1/2 cup of cucumber seeds removed, chopped
  • 1/2 cup of mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup of feta cheese crumbled
  • cooking spray
  • pinch of salt

Instructions
 

  • Start by preheating your oven to 375 degrees.
  • Add the pita wedges to a sheet tray, laying them evenly onto the tray. Lightly spray the pita wedges with the cooking spray and season with a bit of salt. Place the sheet tray into the preheated oven and cook for about 10 minutes, or until the pitas have turned crisp, but not burnt. Those are now your nacho chips.
  • I use a fajita skillet for my next step, however I'm sure not everyone has a fajita skillet laying around. I actually use my fajita skillet for nachos more than I do for fajitas. Go figure. If you do not have a skillet, simply overlap your pita chips to build your nachos. See how I stacked mine around in the picture below.
  • How to make Greek nachos
  • As you are layering the nachos, sprinkle some of the mozzarella cheese in between the wedges as that will become your cheesy glue, keeping the wedges in tact. Next, layer on the feta cheese, and top with the diced chicken, and shallots.
  • Place back in the oven for about 5-10 minutes or until the cheese becomes melted. The feta will not fully melt, but don't worry about that. Once the cheese is melted, remove from the oven and shower on the tomatoes, olives, and cucumber.
  • Dig in. These Greek nachos were really, really good. The pita chip is a perfect vehicle that delivers the great taste from the Greek chicken, then the slight bite of the shallot gets blended very nicely from the sharpness of the feta cheese and olives. If you wanted to take these a step further, you could drizzle a bit of tzatziki sauce over the top, or serve it on the side.
