Instructions
- Lightly grease 4-5 quart slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray. Combine all the ingredients for the sauce into the bottom of the slow cooker. Nestle chicken into the middle of slow cooker and coat with sauce. Cover with lid and cook on low for 3 - 4 hours or high for 1-2 hours. Transfer to cutting board and shred with two forks.
- TO ASSEMBLE
- Coat a 9" cast iron skillet with cooking spray (or line a large 9 ½ x 13 baking sheet with foil or parchment paper). Arrange half of chips onto pan and top with half of shredded chicken, then half of the bell peppers, olives and cheeses. Top with another layer of chips and repeat the toppings.
- Broil or bake at preheated oven at 400 F until cheese is melted and bubbling, about 5-7 minutes. Remove pan from oven and top with pickled jalapenos, green onions and fresh cilantro. Serve with guacamole, sour cream and extra Sriracha sauce, if desired.
