<h3>Chicken Tostadas Recipe Preparation</h3>
<p>Last night I have a leftover Chicken, so I’m going to try this Chicken Tostadas recipe for our meal tonight. It is a type of Mexican tostada, an authentic dish from Mexico and it can be served as an appetizers or snacks. The main ingredient is Tortillas. A tostada is a crispy deep fried tortilla. It is usually topped with a variety of ingredients, as shredded meat or chicken, refried beans, lettuce, tomatoes, crumbly cheese, thinly sliced white onion and of course your favorite salsa. All ingredients and flavors are melded together perfectly. You can also eat this for a lunch meal or you can do it for dinner. My kids love it, they can pick and choose what they would like on their Tostada. They like to add <strong>Mexican Hot Sauce</strong> for a real kick and a squeeze of Lemon.
