Tostadas Tinga de Pollo
Spicy Chicken Tostadas
Mexican Recipe

This simple dish is popular for celebrations in Mexico. It’s especially good served in the traditional style, with no toppings to distract from the scrumptious combination of shredded meat and freshly fried tortilla. If you'd like, add a few sliced avocados for a treat.

Directions 
 

Paper towels on a clean working surface.

  1. Pour ¼ inch of vegetable oil into a spacious, heavy-bottomed skillet set over a medium-high flame and heat until almost smoking.

  2. Fry the tortillas one at a time, keeping them flat and flipping to ensure that both sides are golden.

  3. Drain the tortillas on paper towels to absorb excess oil.

  4. Top with the tinga de pollo—and avocados—and serve.
