Chicken Chorizo Tostadas


My mom came up with this recipe by throwing what she had in a skillet and there was never any left overs. And quite frankly, this is my to-go meal since it is cheap and easy to make. You only need four ingredients! Yep, four! The rest you may have it in your fridge. Anywho, without a doubt it is undoubtedly delicious. 

Ingredients: 

Shredded chicken, I had two left over chicken breasts in my refrigerator.
1 package of Pork Chorizo.
1 can of Chipotle peppers in Adobo sauce.
A package of tostada shells.

Optional: Lemon pickled onions.
1/2 of Onions, sliced thinly.
1/2 of a cup of water.
1/2 of a cup of lemon juice.


Directions:

First, placed onions into container and fill it with 1/2 water 1/2 lemon juice, cover place into the fridge until onions are flimsy looking. 




Heat up your stove to medium heat and and cook Chorizo. When chorizo is done about 8-10 minutes, add your shredded chicken. 


Stir both ingredients together to let the chicken heat up. You will notice it will be very thick. Therefore, in a blender place two chipotle peppers and cover pepper with water and blend until smooth. Add to skillet and mix well. 

**Depending on how many peppers you add the less or more spicy it will be. Two is enough for us.




Let everything marry for about 5 minutes serve. 
Place mixture on a tostada and ganish with your favorite toppings. We used pickled onions, cheese, sour cream, lettuce and avocado. Enjoy!
