Kiwi Chicken Tostadas Recipes

Steps:

• In a small bowl combine cumin, crushed red pepper, and salt. Brush all sides of chicken with oil; sprinkle evenly with cumin mixture.
• Place chicken on the rack of an uncovered grill directly over medium coals. Grill for 12 to 15 minutes or until no longer pink (170°F), turning once halfway through grilling.
• Cut chicken into bite-size strips. In a small bowl combine sour cream and the 2 tablespoons salsa. Spread mixture onto warmed tortillas. Top with lettuce, kiwi, chicken, and cheese. If desired, top with a spoonful of additional salsa.
• * For a crisp tortilla, coat corn tortillas with nonstick cooking spray. Bake in a 400°F oven for 10 to 15 minutes or until crisp, turning once halfway through baking time.

Steps:

• To make the tortillas: Pour the oil for frying into a large heavy-bottomed pot to a depth of about 2 inches. Place over medium heat and heat to 375 degrees F. Add the tortillas, one at a time, and fry until golden brown and crispy, about 1 1/2 minutes. Using tongs, transfer to a paper towel-lined pan and sprinkle with salt. Set aside.
• To make the chicken: In a small bowl, mix together the chicken, lime juice, oil, coriander, and salt and season with pepper to taste. Cover with plastic wrap and set aside.
• To assemble the tostadas: Preheat the broiler. Spread the beans evenly over one side of each tortilla and sprinkle with some of the cheese. Transfer to a baking sheet and broil until the cheese is lightly browned and melted, about 30 seconds. Divide the tortillas among 6 plates.
• Evenly mound the chicken on each tortilla and top with the lettuce. Top each tostada with avocado, salsa, and a dollop of sour cream. Sprinkle with the scallion and garnish the tostada with the coriander leaves. Serve immediately.
• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion, coriander, and cumin and cook, stirring, until lightly browned, about 2 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, until lightly browned, about 1 minute more. Add the beans and cook, stirring frequently, until thick and amber brown in color, about 4 minutes. Stir in the salt and season with pepper to taste.
• In a small bowl, mix together the tomatoes, onion, jalapeno, coriander, salt, and season with pepper to taste. Cover with plastic wrap and set aside.

Steps:

• Place the chicken into a large pot along with 1/4 cup of sliced onion, garlic, and enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, and cook until no longer pink, about 25 minutes. Remove chicken, cool, and shred meat. Discard skin and bones.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the remaining onion slices, and fry until transparent. Place tomatoes into a pan of boiling water (you could use the leftover chicken water), and boil until they split open.
• Place the tomatoes, the whole can of chipotle peppers, chicken bouillon into a blender or large food processor. Process until smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Pour this mixture into a large pan, and add the shredded chicken and cooked onions. Heat through.
• To serve, each person spreads some sour cream on their tostada shell, and tops with a spoonful of the chicken.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Place chicken into a frying pan over medium heat. Sprinkle with taco seasoning and cook until no longer pink in the center and juices run clear, 5 to 7 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• Spread a thin layer of refried beans onto each tostada shell; sprinkle each with Mexican cheese. Divide cooked chicken on top of cheese layer. Sprinkle tomato, red onion, and bell pepper evenly on top of each tostada. Place tostadas on a baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until crispy, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Remove tostadas from the oven. Sprinkle with cilantro and spread salsa and sour cream on top.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine cumin, crushed red pepper, and salt. Brush all sides of chicken with oil; sprinkle evenly with cumin mixture.
• Place chicken on the rack of an uncovered grill directly over medium coals. Grill for 12 to 15 minutes or until no longer pink (170 degrees F), turning once halfway through grilling.
• Cut chicken into bite-size strips.
• Arrange romaine on warmed tortillas.

• 3. Cut chicken into bite-size strips. In a small bowl combine sour cream and 2 tablespoons salsa. Spread mixture onto warmed tortillas. Top with lettuce, kiwi, chicken, and cheese. If desired, top with a spoonful of additional salsa.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and peppers and cook for 5 minutes or until the vegetables are tender-crisp, stirring occasionally.
• Add the corn, beans and chicken to the skillet and cook until the mixture is hot. Stir in the soup and milk and heat to a boil. Reduce the heat to low. Cook for 5 minutes.
• Squeeze 1 teaspoon juice from the lime. Place the avocado into a medium bowl. Add the lime juice and toss to coat.
• Divide the chicken mixture among the tostada shells. Top with the avocado mixture and cilantro. Season with hot pepper sauce, if desired.

Steps:

• Place chicken in a gallon size zip-lock bag with all the marinade ingredients. Press all air out of bag.

• Take meat out of refrigerator 20 minutes before cooking.

• These can either be cooked on the grill or under the broiler.
• Cook chicken 4 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer chicken to cutting board and let rest for 5 minutes before cutting it into 1/2" strips.
• Lightly brush tortillas with vegetable oil.
• If using grill, grill on each side until they turn slightly brown, about 1 minute.
• Add cheese to browned side while other side is browning on grill.
• If using broiler put cheese on tortilla just until cheese melts.
• Serve by layering tortillas with shredded lettuce, chicken strips, remaining cheese and any additional toppings.

Steps:

• Spread refried beans on a flat tostada shell if using. Top with cheese and chicken. Warm in microwave for a minute or two or under broiler until cheese is melted and chicken is warm.
• Place each tostada on a plate and top with remaining ingredients. You can sprinkle with more cheese if desired.
• Note: For authentic Mexican flare try this with Asadero which is similar to Monterrey Jack in place of the cheese blend and maybe even some crumbled Anejo- similar to a Romano cheese or Cotija - salty and dry similar to Parmesan.
