Ingredients
  

1 cup cooked, shredded chicken

1 cup sweet corn (fresh, frozen, or canned; drained if canned)

1/2 cup black beans (drained and rinsed)

1/2 cup diced red bell pepper

1/4 cup finely chopped red onion

1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

1 teaspoon chili powder

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

1 tablespoon fresh lime juice

12 mini corn tortillas

1 cup shredded iceberg or romaine lettuce

1 cup guacamole (store-bought or homemade)

1/2 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt (optional)

Lime wedges for serving

Instructions
 

Prepare the Chicken Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, sweet corn, black beans, diced red bell pepper, chopped red onion, and cilantro. Sprinkle in the chili powder, ground cumin, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and lime juice. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well combined and coated with the spices.

    Toast the Tortillas: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Arrange the mini corn tortillas on a baking sheet in a single layer without overlapping. Bake in the preheated oven for about 8-10 minutes, or until they are crispy and lightly golden brown. To ensure even crisping, flip the tortillas halfway through the baking time.

      Assemble the Tostadas: Once the tortillas are out of the oven and crisped to perfection, take each tortilla and layer it with a handful of shredded lettuce. Then, top each one generously with the sweet corn and chicken mixture, spreading it evenly across the tortilla.

        Add Toppings: Complete each tostada with a dollop of guacamole and, if desired, a spoonful of sour cream or Greek yogurt. For an extra pop of flavor and color, garnish with a sprinkle of additional chopped cilantro. Serve with lime wedges on the side for a fresh squeeze of citrus.

          Serve and Enjoy: Arrange the assembled tostadas on a colorful serving platter or individual plates for an appealing presentation. Your delicious mini sweet corn and chicken tostadas are now ready to be enjoyed by family and friends!
