Chicken Bacon Tostadas
- 1 chicken breast
- 1 cup chickpeas
- 1 cup diced baby spinach leaves
- 2 strips of thick cut bacon
- 10 oz can of enchilada sauce
- 1 lime (juiced)
- 4 flour or corn tortillas
- 2 cup shredded Mexican blend cheese
- 1 tsp onion salt
- 4 habeneros, finely diced (optional but recommended)
- 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 420F.
- 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.
