Baked Chipotle Chicken Tostadas with Lime Salsa
Ingredients
  • 4 (6 inch) corn tortillas
  • cooking spray
  • 1 small tomato, chopped
  • 2 green onions, sliced
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1/2 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped chipotle pepper in adobo sauce
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded cooked chicken
  • 3/4 cup shredded Mexican cheese blend
  • 1/3 cup sliced black olives
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
Instructions
1
Heat your oven to a high temperature of 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius).
2
Spray both sides of each tortilla with a non-stick cooking spray and place them flat on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
3
Place the tortillas in the preheated oven and bake until they become crispy and have a lightly browned appearance, taking anywhere from 6 to 8 minutes.
4
Simultaneously, prepare a bowl by combining diced tomatoes, chopped green onions, freshly squeezed lime juice, and chopped cilantro. Set this mixture aside for later use.
5
Meanwhile, blend softened cream cheese with the finely chopped chipotle pepper in a separate bowl until you achieve a smooth and well combined mixture.
6
Remove the baked tortillas from the oven and apply the cream cheese mixture evenly over each tortilla.
7
Top the tortillas with shredded cooked chicken and melted cheese.
8
Replace the tortillas back in the oven and continue baking until the cheese has melted and is fully incorporated, taking about 5 minutes.
9
Finally, remove the tortillas from the oven and top them with the prepared tomato mixture, pitted green olives, and a dollop of sour cream.
