Rotisserie Chicken Tostadas

Rotisserie Chicken Tostadas
Armando Rafael for The New York Times. Food Stylist: Monica Pierini.

Recipe by Christian Reynoso | Total time: 20 minutes

Crisp tostadas make an excellent scaffolding for fast meals. Here, rotisserie chicken is gently warmed with cumin, garlic and serrano chile, then tossed with lime juice, cilantro and thin sliced onion for a bright, savory chicken salad. Pile generously onto corn tostadas with slices of avocado and this mixture becomes dinner in minutes, with contrast in every bite. They’re warm and cool, crunchy and tender, rich and citrusy.
