Chicken Tostada

This is BY FAR one of our favorite recipes . Try it - you won't be disappointed!!! I have had a hard time finding enchilada sauce up here, but have found a great homemade recipe. If anyone is interested, let me know and I will post it.

Not the prettiest meal, but so tasty

CHICKEN

1 lb boneless chicken breasts, cubed
1 T oil
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
1 jalapeno, minced
1 10 oz can enchilada sauce

Heat 1 T oil in skillet and saute chicken until no longer pink. Add onion, garlic, and jalapeno. Stir in enchilada sauce and bring to a boil. Lower temperature and simmer until ready to serve.

REFRIED BEANS

1 can refried beans
2-4 green chiles, sliced
1 cup jack cheese, shredded

In a greased casserole, layer on half of the beans, chiles, and jack cheese. Repeat. Cover and bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.

LETTUCE

3 cups lettuce, shredded
2 green onions
1 cup cheddar cheese
1/2 cup salsa
2 T Italian salad dressing

In a bowl, mix lettuce, green onions, cheddar cheese, and salsa. Toss with salad dressing.

Heat oil for frying. Fry 4-8 corn tortillas until crisp; drain on paper towels. Place tortilla on plate, top with beans, then chicken, then salad.
