In Partnership With Taco Bell UK
I don’t think I could fully trust a person who doesn’t automatically salivate at the thought of a hot plate of nachos; dripping with gooey cheese and salsa goodness.
I defy anyone to think of a more satisfying, moreish finger food; ideal for chilled out dates or cosy movie nights at home alike.
For many spice hounds, Taco Bell is the place to go when you get a hankering for Mexican food. As well as for those times when you’re after a solid Mean Girls quote.
From the Grilled Stuft Burrito, Crunchwrap Supreme and Crunchy Tacos; the chain has offered many playful takes on Tex-Mex cuisine over it’s 55-year-long history and now, they’ve upped their game big time…

With the bold mantra ‘no more boring chicken,’ Taco Bell has to launched one of their most exciting products yet: Chicken Nachos.
For a wallet-friendly £1.99, one portion of Chicken Nachos contains five pieces of delectably tender chicken breast; layered with a crispy, cheesy coating and a gentle suggestion of spice.
Each scrumptious portion comes complete with plenty of Taco Bell’s iconic creamy cheese sauce; warmed and ready for some heavy duty dipping.
When you think about it, it’s kind of amazing this recipe hasn’t been cooked up sooner. So much more filling and satisfying than your go-to tortilla chip, yet still retaining all those zesty flavours which leave you licking the plate.
People are understandably more than a little bit excited over this recent quirky addition to the already proudly kooky menu.
One person jested: ‘Sorry I couldn’t hear you over the sound of my car starting’ while another squealed; ‘Nachos made from chicken?! YES PLEASE!’
One particularly passionate person solemnly declared:
This will go down with the other great innovations such as Concorde, the QE2, iPads, Space X amazing work! Hopefully the Woking store has got these!
When you bring your butt to the Birmingham area, I might get to try these!
Honestly I’ll just probably head to Nottingham anyways. But seriously, can you please open stores in and around Brum, I beg every few months and it still hasn’t happened and it makes me SAD guys ???— Claire ?? (@KnickalessKlurr) March 12, 2018

This isn’t the first time Taco Bell have messed with our notions regarding what is the carb and what should be in the carb.
Previous mind-boggling concoctions launched in the US have included Chicken Tacos – which quickly became a fan favourite – as well as the similarly popular dish Naked Chicken Chips. Just like the Chicken Nachos, these could be heading to a UK store near you in the future, so watch this space.
The Chicken Nachos are available now in 23 Taco Bell stores across the UK, including Glasgow, Leeds and Brighton.
The world of nacho etiquette has been changed forever.
