A note about serious food allergies

Crunchy tostadas get toppings green and great in this easy-to-make dinner that brings some delightful heat. Green chili aioli adds a considerable kick, while green hatch chiles bring flavor to the sweet corn, tender chicken, and green onions. Topped with your standard-issue Tex-Mex accoutrement, cheese, these tostadas make spice nice and with crunch enough to spare.

Cooking Guidelines

To ensure food safety, the FDA recommends the following as minimum internal cooking temperatures:

  • Steak and Pork 145° F (rest cooked meat, 3 minutes) |
  • Seafood 145° F |
  • Chicken 165° F |
  • Ground Beef 160° F |
  • Ground Turkey 165° F |
  • Ground Pork 160° F
  1. 1

    Bake the Tortillas

    Tostadas are a delicious, but messy treat. For this recipe, they can easily be converted to tacos. Simply warm tortillas in oven for 1-2 minutes after completing steps, omitting the baking in step 1.

    Poke tortillas with a fork all over, 10 times for each tortilla.

    Place tortillas on prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 tsp. olive oil and massage oil into tortillas.

    Bake in hot oven until browned and crispy, 5-7 minutes.

    While tortillas bake, prepare ingredients.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Trim and thinly slice green onions.

    In a mixing bowl, combine green chili aioli (to taste) and sour cream. Set aside.

    Pat chicken thighs dry, and season all over with a pinch of salt. Don't worry about trimming. Excess fat will render while cooking and add flavor.

  3. 3

    Start the Chicken Mixture

    Place a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil.

    Add chicken and seasoning blend to hot pan. Stir occasionally until chicken is lightly browned, 4-5 minutes.

  4. 4

    Finish the Chicken Mixture

    Stir corn, hatch chiles (use less if spice-averse), and green onions into hot pan.

    Stir occasionally until vegetables are tender and chicken reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 2-3 minutes.

    Remove from burner.

  5. 5

    Bake Tostadas and Finish Dish

    Spread green chili-sour cream mixture (to taste) evenly on tortillas. Top evenly with chicken mixture, then cheese.

    Bake again in hot oven until cheese has melted, 5-7 minutes.

    Plate dish as pictured on front of card. Bon appétit!
