Chicken Tostadas
Chicken Tostadas are Piled High with Flavor!
A chicken tostada (a type of Mexican tostada) is an authentic Mexican dish that layers creamy refried beans, moist chicken, luscious avocado, and crisp shredded lettuce on top of a warm, crispy corn tortilla. Topped with sour cream, shredded cheese, and a drizzle of GOYA® Hot Sauce, every mouthful delivers a burst of flavor and crunch that your family will find irresistible.
Mexican tostadas are the best of home cooking, Mexican style!

1¼ cups

Tostadas
Step 1
Add chicken bouillon mixture to medium saucepan over medium-high heat; bring to boil. Add chicken; lower heat to medium. Simmer until chicken is cooked through, about 20 minutes. Transfer chicken to plate to cool; shred and set aside.
Step 2
Meanwhile, heat oven to 180°F; place baking sheet inside oven. Heat ½” oil in medium skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering, but not smoking. Add one tortilla; cook until crisp and golden brown on both sides, flipping once, about 1 minute. Transfer to paper towel-lined plate to drain, and then transfer to baking sheet in oven. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
Step 3
To assemble tostadas, spread 3 tbsp. refried beans on each crisped tortilla. Divide reserved chicken, lettuce, tomato and avocado evenly among tortillas. Serve with salsita, pico de gallo, sour cream and cheese, if desired.
