Step-By-Step Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Coat a 9x13-inch sheet pan with cooking spray. Layer the tortilla chips in the bottom of the pan and set aside.

  2. Add the oil to a sauté pan and heat over medium heat. Add the onions and garlic and sauté for 5 minutes, until the onions start to turn clear. 

  3. Add the onions and garlic, black beans, pepper, and chicken broth to a blender or food processor and purée until smooth. Pour the bean mixture over the chips.

  4. In a small bowl, mix peppers, cilantro, lime juice, red onion, and 1 cup of the tomatoes. Add the chicken breast and spoon the mixture evenly over the top of the bean mixture. 

  5. Top with the cheese and bake for 20 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven and top the nachos with shredded lettuce and the remaining diced tomato.

  6. Divide the nachos among 6 serving plates and top each with 4 teaspoons of yogurt.
