Tostada- a total delight
Tostada
This is such a great delight. A large crispy tortilla with all the stuffings on it and topped off with condiments like olives and jalapenos. My mom loves this.
Recipe:
4-6 tostadas, find them in any grocery store
2 cups shredded, boneless chicken any way you like it - my recipe follows
1 cup guacamole, homemade or store brought
1 cup salsa , homemade or store brought
small can olives chopped
cilantro chopped
smal container mexican sour cream or regular sour cream
green onions chopped
1 can mexican black beans, drain of the liquid and rinse the beans
jalapenos if you desire
kraft or any company mexican blend of cheese
Procedure:
My roast chicken recipe:
Clean and cut chicken breast. marinate with salt, pepper, cumin powder, garlic cloves and the brine from jalapeno jar along with few jalapenos and veggies like carrots, bell pepper, onions and tomatoes.
Bake in oven at 350F for 45 mins.
Pan roast with little oil to get crispy dry shredded chicken.
Tostada Layering:
Take a single toastada and add the chicken as the bottom most layer. then the beans. Then the gucamole and salsa, top it with cream cheese. Garnish with jalapenos, olives, shredded cheese and green onions. Serve immediately or the tostada will get soggy.
For a vegeterian meal, add grilled veggies like onions, bell peppers, tomatoes, zuccini, eggplant, mushrooms etc instead of chicken.
Enjoy
Dipti!
