Ingredients

  • 2 skinless, boneless chicken breasts, diced
  • ½ (1 ounce) package taco seasoning mix
  • 1 (16 ounce) can refried beans
  • 6 corn tostada shells
  • 1 cup shredded Mexican cheese blend
  • 1 tomato, diced
  • ¾ red onion, diced
  • ¾ green bell pepper, diced
  • ½ cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • ¼ cup salsa, or to taste (Optional)
  • ¼ cup sour cream, or to taste (Optional)

Directions

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Step 2
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).

Step 3
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.

Step 4
Bake in the preheated oven until crispy, 10 to 15 minutes.

Step 5
Remove tostadas from the oven. Sprinkle with cilantro and spread salsa and sour cream on top.

Cook’s Note:

You can use chicken thighs instead of chicken breasts, if you'd like.
