How to Make Ultimate Buffalo Chicken Nachos

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Spread the waffle-cut fries in a single layer on a large baking sheet. Bake for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
  3. While the fries are baking, prepare the buffalo chicken: In a bowl, toss the cooked chicken with buffalo wing sauce.
  4. Once the fries are cooked, transfer them to a large oven-safe bowl or baking dish.
  5. Top the fries with the buffalo chicken, black beans, cheddar cheese, and Monterey Jack cheese.
  6. Bake for another 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  7. Remove from the oven and top with red onion, cilantro, and diced avocado.
  8. Serve immediately with sour cream and/or ranch dressing, if desired.
