What's game day without can't-stop-munching nachos? Featuring layers of crunchy tortilla chips, black beans and a creamy, smoky chicken mixture, this appetizer will disappear before the second quarter. —Whitney Smith, Winterhen, Florida

Ingredients

1 pound ground chicken
2/3 cup water
1 envelope taco seasoning
1/4 cup cream cheese, softened
3 tablespoons minced fresh chives
2 tablespoons plus 1-1/2 teaspoons 2% milk
2 tablespoons dry bread crumbs
1 teaspoon prepared mustard
1/2 teaspoon paprika
3/4 teaspoon liquid smoke, optional
6 cups tortilla chips
1 can (15 ounces) black beans, rinsed and drained
1 cup shredded cheddar-Monterey Jack cheese
Optional toppings: Chopped tomatoes and sliced ripe olives

Directions

In a large skillet over medium heat, cook chicken until no longer pink, breaking it into crumbles; drain. Add water and taco seasoning; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Combine the cream cheese, chives, milk, bread crumbs, mustard, paprika and, if desired, liquid smoke; stir into chicken mixture until blended.

In an ungreased 13x9-in. baking dish, layer half the chips, chicken mixture, beans and cheese. Repeat layers.
Bake at 350° for 15-20 minutes or until cheese is melted. Serve with tomatoes and olives if desired.
