1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

1
Adjust rack to middle position and preheat oven to 375&degF. Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat until simmering. Add chicken, chili, cumin, oregano, 1 teaspoon chipotle powder, cayenne, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and garlic. Cook, stirring, until chicken is just cooked through, about 5 minutes. Stir in broth and bring to simmer. Season to taste and remove from heat.

Lightly mash pinto beans with remaining 1/4 teaspoon chipotle powder. Spread 3/4 of the chips in a 13- by 9-inch baking dish. Spoon bean mixture over chips, followed by the chicken and 1/3 cup of the jalapenos. Sprinkle 3/4 of the cheese over the top.
3
Place remaining chips on top and sprinkle with the remaining cheese. Bake until nachos are hot and cheese has melted, about 20 minutes. Scatter tomatoes, avocado, sour cream, cilantro, and remaining jalapenos over the top. Serve immediately.
