Chicken Tinga Tostadas

Recipe amounts are loose here! I recommend eyeballing a bit here too.
Servings 4 people
Total Time 15 minutes

Ingredients

  • Oil or oil spray
  • 2 per person Tortillas:
  • 1/4 cup per tortilla Leftover Chicken Tinga
  • 1/4 cup per tortilla Shredded Mexican cheese
  • 1/4 cup per person Avocado or guac, on the side (optional)
  • 2 tablespoon per person Sourcream, on the side (optional)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425.
  • Place tortillas in microwave for 20 seconds. This will make them more malleable.
  • Rub one side of each tortilla with a bit of oil or spray with oil and lightly spread it around on the one side.
  • Place tortillas on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper with the oiled side DOWN (on the outside). Place 1-2 tablespoons of cheese on one half of the tortilla, then add the chicken, then add more (1-2 tablespoons) cheese. Fold tortilla over to make a half moon. Repeat with other tortillas.
  • Bake tortillas for a total of about 10-12 minutes (I've noticed a big difference in time depending on the oven, so check at 10 and then see), flipping tortillas halfway through at 5 minutes, until brown on both sides. Eat immediately.
