Chicken & Veggie Tostadas

Hello, friends. Spring has finally "sprung," and I couldn't be happier! Here's a light (but flavorful) meal that's perfect for this time of year. Enjoy!

Chicken & Veggie Tostadas

Adapted from Cooking Light, Nov. 2012

 

2 tsp canola oil

1 tsp ground cumin

1/2 tsp kosher salt

1 cup shredded rotisserie chicken breast

1 cup fresh corn kernels

1 cup chopped zucchini

1/2 cup salsa verde (I use Frontera brand)

2 tbs chopped fresh cilantro

4 8-inch flour tortillas

1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese

cooking spray

 

Preheat broiler.

 

Combine canola oil, ground cumin and kosher salt; mix well and add to large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken, corn, zucchini to pan and sauté for 2 minutes. Add salsa verde and 1 tbs cilantro and cook another 2 minutes, stirring regularly.

 

Lightly spray tortillas with cooking spray and place on baking sheet; broil for 2 minutes or until lightly browned. Spoon equal amounts of chicken mixture into the center of each tortilla and sprinkle each with cheese. Place under the broiler for 2 minutes or until cheese is melted. Top with remaining chopped cilantro.

 

 



 

Until next time...

 

Cheers!
