These Chicken Tostadas with Avocado Sauce take me right back to a tiny taqueria I ate at in Mexico City when I travelled there. I had never tasted fresher Mexican food than in that taqueria and before I left, I asked the chef how she made them so creamy! She told me the secret to her creamy sauce – a blender. Now I’m sharing that recipe with you!
To make the sauce, you just puree avocado with cilantro, garlic, sour cream, lime juice, water and salt. The trick is to leave the blender running until the sauce is very smooth. Then you use this sauce to coat the shredded chicken and the lettuce, onion and pepper. Try these tostadas soon – you’ll love them! Top tip – if you’re making this in advance, the sauce and the salad will keep for up to one day in the refrigerator. You can assemble the rest of the ingredients just before you serve up!
To make Chicken Tostadas with Avocado Sauce, you will need the following ingredients:
Blend the avocado, cilantro, garlic, sour cream, lime juice, water, and ½ teaspoon of salt in a food processor. Don’t stop blending until you have a very smooth sauce.
Toss the lettuce, onion, and pepper together in a large salad bowl.
Combine the shredded chicken with ¾ cup of the avocado sauce in a medium bowl.
Add the remaining avocado sauce and ⅛ teaspoon of salt to the salad and mix well.
Heat each corn tortilla between two paper towels on high heat in the microwave. This should take about 1 minute. Repeat until each tortilla is golden and crisp.
Place each tortilla in the centre of a plate. Place the chicken on each of the tortillas. Top with some of the lettuce mixture and tomato slices. Sprinkle cheese on top.
Serve the tostadas garnished with lime wedges.
