AUTHENTIC Mexican Tostada Recipe - Crispy Fried Corn Tortillas!
Authentic Mexican Tostadas
Servings: 10 tostadas
Ingredients:
~~~Shredded Chicken~~~
1 lb chicken tenders, uncooked
1/4 cup water
1 Tbsp taco seasoning
1/2 cup taco sauce, divided
Salt to taste
~~~Totadas~~~
10 corn tortillas
Vegetable oil
~~~Toppings~~~
1 (15oz) can refried beans, warmed
Shredded lettuce
Tomatoes, diced
Red onion, diced
Fresh cilantro, finely chopped
Guacamole
Sour cream
Cotija cheese, finely grated
Directions:
~~~Shredded Chicken~~~
1.) Place chicken tenders, water, taco seasoning, 1/4 cup taco sauce and salt in your InstantPot. Mix and cook on high for 15 minutes (or select the poultry option). To cook on stove top, mix chicken tenders, taco seasoning, taco sauce, and salt together in a bowl, and transfer to a prepared skillet. Cook over medium heat for 3-4 minutes per side until thoroughly cooked. (Pressure cooking the chicken makes it easier to shed).
2.) Using 2 forks, shred the chicken.
3.) Transfer shredded chicken to a small bowl, add 1/4 cup taco sauce and mix well.
~~~Tostadas~~~
1.) Heat about 1/4 inch vegetable oil in a small skillet on medium high heat until sizzling.
2.) Using tongs, lower tortillas into three skillet one at a time. Bubbles will form in the tortillas immediately, if not, then the oil is not enough. Fry for about 30-45 seconds on each side until golden brown. Use your tongs to press the tortilla well into the oil. Allow exceed oil to drip from the tortilla once fried, then place on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oils. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
3.) Top the crispy tortillas with your favorite toppings and enjoy!

Cooking Enthusiasts: Oven Baked Tostada Shells
Oven Baked Tostada Shells.
This is more technique than recipe. It produces tasty tostadas with minimal oil used, and much less mess than frying in oil.
Also, total bake time is about 20 minutes depending on doneness - But ideally, this process allows flexibility while you are prepping, chopping, slicing, dicing or cooking, with little clean up.
These bake very flat, with virtually no curling. I used the minimal amount of oil and chose corn oil as these are corn tortillas, but any neutral tasting oil is fine. Add salt to taste if desired.
For best results, good quality, heavy baking trays of identical size, model and make work best as these stack or nest inside one another.
Allow shells to cool on a flat surface when done for at least 5 minutes BEFORE topping as they crisp and break to the bite best - cooled, ensuring minimal shattering and mess.
I found that too light a coat of oil will produce a chewy or tough shell, so if you use 10 grams oil per six shells, you should get crispy shells that don’t shatter or ‘tug’ to the bite.
Preheat oven to 400° F. Start with 10 minutes first side bakingon a single leayer, then flip and bake second side 10 minutes. If more browning is desired, as ovens vary, bake and check at 3-4 minute intervals to prevent over-baking.
Once you have desired bake time down, ensuinng tostadas should yield consistent results.
Bake no more than 4 stacked trays or 18 total tortillas at a time to ensure consistency of doneness.
Finally, these tostadas in video were kept simple. In no way was I demonstrating an 'authentic recipe'.
JUST demonstrating technique for baking shells, base layer spread and initial layer of topping. Please top as you desire keeping excess liquid in check, to fully enjoy.

Homemade Tostada Shells
Crispy, homemade tostada shells are extremely easy to make. This healthier recipe is baked rather than fried so it requires less oil. Plus, you'll only need 3 simple ingredients and 15-20 minutes from start to finish. You'll never need to buy shells again, and your leftover corn tortillas won't go to waste. That's a huge win in my book!
CHORIQUESO! How to Make my Favorite Mexican Restaurant Appetizer & Chile Pequin Salsa Recipe
Today we’re cooking a CHORIQUESO!
Getcha Some APC BBQ Rubs Here:

Sometimes this is called a “queso flameado” but queso flameado is usually lit on fire with a shot of tequila - we’re not doing that today. We’re making a simple choriqueso the way we used to experience it here in
South Texas on the border. Sometimes this is made with rajas, sometimes with mushrooms or other chile pepper and onion toppings, but today we’re keeping it simple.
A lot of my barbecue passion and experience came from my father and grandfather, but the choriqueso and cabrito experience came from my father in law – Frank Nieto!
Today we’re cooking over the fire on the ProPit RPG Grill but you can cook this on the stove top or in the oven, whatever works best for you. All you need for this recipe is two packages of Chorizo de San Manuel, our favorite chorizo, and two packs of queso oaxaca.
This recipe is so, so easy to make. All we have to do is cook the chorizo in the pan, add the grated cheese, and then pull yourself a big ol delicious choriqueso taco. You can top this with your favorite salsa, guacamole, or anything else you like. Let’s fire it up and cook some choriqueso!
