Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Prepare the chicken: In a bowl, toss the shredded chicken with barbecue sauce until evenly coated.
  • Assemble the tostadas: Place tostada shells on a baking sheet. Spread a layer of black beans, then top with BBQ chicken. Sprinkle with shredded cheese.
  • Bake for 7–10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  • Add toppings: Remove from the oven and top with corn, red onion, jalapeño, cherry tomatoes, shredded lettuce, avocado, and cilantro.
  • Serve: Drizzle with sour cream, squeeze fresh lime juice over the top, and enjoy!

Notes

  • Swap chicken for shredded beef or jackfruit for a vegetarian version.
  • Use store-bought tostadas or make your own by baking or frying corn tortillas.
  • Add a spicy kick with hot sauce or extra jalapeños.
