Last week I really fancied chicken nachos! I decided to pop the chicken and the veggies in the slow cooker, then I only needed 10 minutes preparation for serving up. This is such an easy recipe so here is my slow cooker chicken nachos recipe – hope you enjoy it!

I’m a real fan of using my slow cooker, as my regular readers will know. Being able to pop a delicious meal into my slow cooker is so convenient for us as a family.

If you’ve got an air fryer, and want something a little faster, then be sure to check out my air fryer chicken nachos!

We don’t have to eat at a set time and if we are running late for dinner time we can just put it on ‘keep warm’. So convenient.

Ingredients for slow cooker chicken nachos

350g chicken breast

3 mixed peppers

2 red onions

One can of chopped tomatoes

15ml tomato puree

1 tsp cajun seasoning (or just use leftover air fryer cajun chicken!)

1 tsp ground cumin

2 tsp paprika

2 tsp mild chilli powder

3 garlic cloves

Salt & pepper

1/4 tsp sugar

Method for slow cooker chicken nachos

Spray your slow cooker with spray oil.

Chop and place the veggies in the slow cooker.

Add the tinned tomatoes and tomato puree.

Measure out the spices and pop them in. Add your garlic (chopped or crushed).

Mix together.

Add the chicken breast to the top.

Cook on high for 4 hours.

Shred the chicken breast using a couple of forks and mix it into the cooked vegetables it was sitting on top of.

Serve on tortilla chips. Why not make your own tortillas and turn them into tortilla chips? This is SUPER cheap!

Serve with sour cream, guacamole & nacho cheese sauce. Alternatively just sprinkle on grated cheese – as I did!

Delicious!

Do you need to spray a slow cooker?

It really depends on the recipe, I would say yes for this one, as it just doesn’t have a lot of liquid, and you want it to cook well without sticking.

ALL of the slow cooker recipes on this website have been cooked using a Ninja Foodi OL750UK, or the previous model, but you can use ANY slow cooker, as timings should be very similar.
