Chicken and Guac Tostadas

I am stealing this recipe from someone I follow on FB. Become a fan of "Recipes for Gals in Figure and Bodybuilding". She posts some awesome stuff! She actually took this one from Cooking Light Magazine. I don't subscribe only because their recipes aren't always "clean", but this one looks wonderfully balanced and squeaky clean. I will likely make mine with stone ground corn tortillas vs. the tostada shells. I'll be making this myself this week.





Makes 4 servings (2 tostadas each)

Ingredients:

1 ripe peeled avocado
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons finely chopped tomato, divided
3 tablespoons minced fresh onion, divided
3 tablespoons fresh lime juice, divided
1/2 teaspoon salt, divided or Mrs. Dash for us "clean" folks.
1 small garlic clove, minced
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
1 tablespoon minced seeded jalapeno pepper
2 cups shredded skinless, boneless, skinless rotisserie chicken breast
1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
8 (6-inch) corn tostada shells (or stone ground corn tortillas)

Directions:

1. Place avocado in a small bowl; mash with a fork. Stir in 2 tablespoons tomato, 1 tablespoon onion, 1 tablespoon juice, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and garlic.

2. Combine remaining 1 cup tomato, 2 tablespoons onion, 1 tablespoon lime juice, 1/4 teaspoon salt, cilantro, and jalapeƱo; toss well.

3. Combine chicken, remaining 1 tablespoon juice, and paprika; toss well to combine. Spread about 1 tablespoon guacamole over each tostada shell; top each with 1/4 cup chicken mixture and about 2 tablespoons salsa.
