Ingredients
- 2 Chicken Breasts
- 6 Tostada Shells
- 2 tbsp Olive Oil
- 1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
- 1/2 tsp Onion Powder
- 1/2 tsp Kosher Salt
- 1/4 tsp Black Pepper
- 1 cup Refried Beans
- 1 cup Lettuce chopped
- 1/2 cup Tomatoes diced
- 1 Avocado sliced
- 1 cup Cheddar Cheese shredded
- 1/2 cup Sour Cream
- Cilantro for garnish
Instructions
- Season the Chicken. Start by seasoning the chicken breasts with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
- Cook the Chicken. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the chicken breasts until they are golden brown and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes per side.
- Shred the Chicken. Once cooked, let the chicken rest for a few minutes before shredding it with two forks.
- Prepare the Tostada Shells. If using pre-made tostada shells, warm them in the oven for a few minutes. If making homemade, fry corn tortillas in hot oil until crispy and golden brown.
- Spread the Beans. Spread a layer of refried beans onto each tostada shell.
- Add the Chicken. Top the beans with a generous amount of shredded chicken.
- Layer the Toppings. Add shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, avocado slices, and shredded cheese.
- Finish with Sauces. Drizzle sour cream over the top and sprinkle with fresh cilantro.
