ROTISSERIE CHICKEN WEEK: CHICKEN TOSTADAS


This rotisserie chicken-friendly recipe was shared by a foodie, and it's good. When she sent it, she didn't list measurements on the ingredients. It's really one of those recipes where you just toss things in until it looks right. But we've tried to approximate how much of each ingredient we used to make about six tostadas.

INGREDIENTS

Six crispy tostada shells

1 can refried beans (or bean dip)

3 cups rotisserie chicken meat, shredded

½ cup salsa

½ cup guacamole

¼ teaspoon cumin

¼ cup diced red onion

Two cups shredded Mexican cheese

¼cup chopped cilantro

Chopped lettuce

Chopped tomato

Sour cream

DIRECTIONS

Heat oven to 400 degrees. Meanwhile, spread beans over tostadas, then sprinkle with cheese. Place on a baking sheet and bake for 5 minutes or until cheese is melted.

Mix together cilantro, guacamole, salsa, cumin, chopped red onion and shredded chicken.

Spoon mixture on top of tostadas, sprinkle with more cheese and bake for another 7 minutes (or until melted).

Top with lettuce, tomatoes and sour cream and serve.
