I make these all the time. The first time - last fall - it was very time consuming, but I've got it down to a science now. Store bought chips for one thing, although I have made lots of homemade tortilla chips in my day and they are wonderful. The first time I made this, I made the cheese sauce. I didn't like it much, it was grainy and made a mess. So I now buy jarred queso cheese; there are lots of varieties of them from white queso to queso salsa, etc. I hope it's not sacrilage to do that to one of Emeril's wonderful recipes, but it's pretty darn good! The chicken is the absolute star of the show and I cook it like this all the time for many other things. Tomorrow night the girls are coming to my deck for some margaritas and nachos. Can't wait to show off this recipe!

Super Bowl touchdown! Scored big points with my husband, son & their friends! Excellent flavor in the shredded chicken. Smooth blend on the creamy sauce. A well balanced taste in every bite.

The only part I've made is the shredded chicken, and it is soooo good! I use it in enchiladas and plan to use it in BBQ chicken sandwiches!

This is my go to shredded chicken, it makes the whole house smell unbelievable! I use it for nachos, enchiladas, tacos, etc. I do add a tsp or two of cumin every batch. The pico can be made with fresh roma tomatoes as well.

Emeril's recipes are always great!.. This one was no exception! One thing I did was use store bought tortilla chips to make it easier. The chicken did have a lot of liquid so at the last 30 min. I left it un-covered. I also added a few dashes of cumin while it simmered. The flavor was great but I wasn't sure why only the first layer had queso sauce; it was a little dry on the underneath chips. I served with some hot refried beans so people could put it on top if they wanted, sour cream, scallions and pico-de-gallo.

so good, so good! It comes out more like a casserole, which I think is better for reheating. Yum!

Like so many others, I just made the chicken which will be my go-to recipe from now on. Next time I'll cut the salt in half, though. Stupendous!

I used beef instead and it was amazing! This is our favorite meal. It takes a litte longer to cook but well worth the wait. By far the best Nacho's I've ever had!
