  • 6 3oz Canned Chicken Breast
  • 2 1oz Packets Taco Bell Seasoning Mix
  • 4 1oz Titos Jalapeño Slices
  • 1 Block Velveeta Mexican Cheese
  • 1 3.5oz Fried Onions
  • 1 8oz Bottle Garlic Chili Sauce
  • 1 Cup Boiling Water

Instructions
 

Prep

  • In a large bowl, mix the six packs of chicken, two Taco Bell seasoning packets, and fried onions. Mix well.
  • Stir in the garlic chili sauce and jalapeños. Let sit.
  • Crush all four bags of Fritos chips into a large bowl.
  • Cut the Velveeta cheese into cubes and warm it in a small bowl (microwave if available).

Cook

  • Cook the chicken mixture in the microwave for eight minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent burning.
  • Add one cup of boiling water to the crushed chips. Mix with a spoon until all the dry mix is moist and ready to build.

Build

  • Scoop three spoonfuls of the chip mixture onto the center of wax paper sheets.
  • Press down in the center to create a dent. Scoop two spoonfuls of the chicken mixture into the center, then top with three additional spoonfuls of the chip mixture.
  • Fold the edges of the wax paper over the center, flip and enjoy!
