How'd He Do It?

Dice up Onion. Move to the side.

Pre-heat Oven to 400

Take out the chicken and lightly season with Old Bay. 

Make sure to get both sides.

Pour two cups of Rice into a pot. Add four cups of water.

He used a rice cooker. Bring to boil and put on low. 

Simmer for 15. 
Place the can of refried beans into a pot and  set it to low.

Time to open the Beer. Today he chose Brooklyn Brewery Lager.

Dice up the chicken into eatable bites. Wash Hands!

Add more Old Bay (Probably 2 tablespoons) 

Mix into the chicken.

Grease cookie sheet. Create a layer of tortillas chips.

Spread Pepperjack over the chips. Add about half the onions.

Drink Break.

Add Olive Oil to a skillet. 

Add onions and set stove to Medium High.

Add Chicken to the skillet. 

Cook for 6 minutes or till semi white. 

Add a little Beer from the one in your hand into the skillet.

Looking delicous!

 Add the cooked rice to the batch and cover.

Add more Old Bay Seasoning, Frank's Hot Sauce, and Salt.

Cook for another six minutes or till Chicken is white.

Add the Refried Beans to the top of the first layer.

Next add the chicken and rice.

Add Mozzarella. Layer with chips.

Add Pepperjack. Layer with Chips.

Finally add the Provolone cheese. 

Take a much needed break.

Place pan into Oven.

Don't forget to add Frank's Hot Sauce to the top layer.

Too much Frank's could be an issue.

When the cheese melts, remove from Oven. Let cool.

Safety First! 

Enjoy!

Maybe  you should have let it cooled off first.

Hot stuff, huh?

 My Verdict:

After warming it up, I found that the first bite was sorta bland, but was I wrong. The addition of the pepperjack offered an aftertaste of low heat. The kind of heat that makes just enough kick to want you coming back! Occasionally the addition of Frank's was too much, but when it was on par, it was fabulous. The three cheese perspective for a nacho dish is a pleasant sight to a relatively simple entree. Aside from some soggy chips, the added crunch of the chips complemented the softness of the chicken and rice. Great dynamic, and once again, great dish!
