Chicken Bacon Tostadas step by step
- Prepare chickpeas by soaking them overnight in water. Then once they are ready boil them for about 8 minutes or until ready. You can add them whole or make a hummus type spread..
- Juice the lime or you can cheat and use lime juice in the little plastic squeeze bottle. Add this juice to your chicken along with the onion powder..
- I like to slice the chicken before I cook it so that there is more surface area for the seasonings. Then cook on medium heat in a skillet..
- Cook the bacon about 2/3 of the way as you will finish off the dish in the oven which you will preheat to 420°F. Slice the strips of bacon in to thin strips..
- Spread the enchilada sauce on the tortillas and sprinkle some cheese on it. I added cooked chickpeas (whole). Then add chicken, bacon and some more cheese..
- Bake in oven until cheese is thoroughly melted and tortillas become slightly crispy, 8-10 minutes..
- Dice up the baby spinach and throw on top after baking along with another drizzle of lime juice..
- Dish turned out nice but next time I will be throwing some diced habaneros in the mix. Just didn't think about it until I realized something was missing while eating it..
