Start by making the chipotle chicken using rotisserie chicken.

Add cream to the chicken for flavor and creaminess.

Mix in Chipotle adobo for a smoky, spicy flavor.

Squeeze half a lime into the mixture to cut through the creaminess.

Spread tortilla chips onto a sheet pan.

Chop the chipotles into smaller pieces and sprinkle over the chips for added color and spice.

Sprinkle sharp cheddar cheese over the chips for saltiness and pull when melted.

Add small black beans on top for texture and heartiness.

Bake in the oven at 450°F for about 10 minutes until the edges are slightly brown and cheese is melted.

Top the nachos with fresh chopped onions, cilantro, and jalapeños for crunch and freshness.

Drizzle El Yucateco hot sauce over the nachos for added heat and flavor.

Finish with a squeeze of lime juice before serving.
