Mini Chicken Tostadas
Tiny tostadas are festive and delicious for parties or fun weeknight meals!
Servings: 60 chicken tostadas
Ingredients
For the Chicken
- 4 cups shredded chicken (See Recipe Note #1 for options)
Tostadas and Toppings
- 60 2-inch round tortilla chips fewer if the rounds are larger
- 16 ounce can refried beans warmed
- 3 ounces shredded sharp cheddar cheese or Monterey Jack or Queso Fresco
- 2 large avocados thinly sliced
- salsa
- sour cream or Mexican Crema
- chopped fresh cilantro
- lime wedges for serving, optional
Instructions
Assemble Mini Tostadas
- On one chip, spread about a teaspoon of warm refried beans followed by a large pinch of shredded chicken, pinch of cheese, small avocado slice, spoon of salsa and a small dollop of sour cream. Sprinkle with fresh cilantro if desired. Repeat with remaining chips. (You can also do this assembly style, adding the layers in order to a whole tray of chips.) Serve with lime wedges if desired.

Notes
- For the shredded chicken, my slow cooker Shredded Chicken or a store bought rotisserie chicken are convenient options. But for the best flavor, I recommend making Chicken Tinga or Chicken Carnitas.
- To serve these at a party, arrange the chips and toppings on a table so that guests can assemble their own!
