• 1 cup Shredded lettuce
• 1 cup Diced tomatoes
• 1 cup Shredded cheese (cheddar or Mexican blend)
• 1 cup Sour cream
• 1 tablespoon Lime juice
• 2 tablespoons Chopped cilantro (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Using a round cookie cutter or a glass, cut each mini corn tortilla into smaller round shapes if desired, keeping them small and uniform for bite-sized tostadas.

Step 3

Brush both sides of the tortillas lightly with olive oil and arrange them on a baking sheet.

Step 4

Bake the tortillas in the preheated oven for 6-8 minutes, or until they are crispy and golden brown. Remove and set aside.

Step 5

In a bowl, mix the shredded chicken with chili powder, ground cumin, garlic powder, and salt until well coated.

Step 6

In a medium skillet over medium heat, add the seasoned chicken. Stir and cook for 3-5 minutes to warm through. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 7

Spread a small spoonful of black beans onto each crispy tortilla as the first layer.

Step 8

Top each tostada with a layer of shredded chicken, followed by shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, and shredded cheese.

Step 9

In a small bowl, mix the sour cream and lime juice to create a tangy crema.

Step 10

Drizzle the lime crema over the tostadas and sprinkle with chopped cilantro if desired.

Step 11

Serve immediately and enjoy your crispy, flavor-packed Miniature Chicken Tostadas!
