Ingredients

  • 8 small corn tortillas
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 mango, peeled and diced
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • 1/2 red onion, finely diced
  • 1 jalapeno, seeded and minced
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves, chopped
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Vegetable oil for frying

Directions

  1. Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, cumin, and chili powder. Grill the chicken for 6-8 minutes on each side, or until cooked through. Remove from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes. Then, slice the chicken into thin strips.
  2. In a small bowl, combine the sour cream, mayonnaise, lime juice, and chopped cilantro. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Mix well to create the lime crema.
  3. In a large skillet, heat about 1/4 inch of vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Fry the corn tortillas, one at a time, for about 1-2 minutes on each side, or until golden and crispy. Remove from the skillet and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
  4. To assemble the tostadas, spread a spoonful of the lime crema on each crispy tortilla shell. Top with a few slices of grilled chicken, diced mango, sliced avocado, minced red onion, and diced jalapeno. Garnish with additional cilantro leaves if desired.
  5. Serve the mini chicken and mango tostadas immediately and enjoy!
