BBQ Chicken Tostadas

This Mess Is Ours

I have lots of backyard BBQ recipes that we keep in the rotation around here, but just the mention of this BBQ Chicken Tostada Recipe inspires my kids to ditch their screens and come out into the sunlight!

These babies are so fast, easy, and DELICIOUS that we don’t have to wait for the weekend to fire up the grill either, because they go from start to finish in under 30 minutes. What more could a busy mom ask for?

Ingredients

White Scribbled Underline

Make the Coleslaw

In a large bowl combine the cabbage, carrots, cilantro, poblano, and the creamy Litehouse Coleslaw dressing. Toss well to coat. Season to taste with salt and pepper, set aside.

Make the Chicken

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates. Place the chicken breasts in a large plastic bag along with BBQ sauce, olive oil, salt and pepper. Using a heavy skillet gently pound the chicken to flatten it. Set aside.

Once the grill is preheated and the coleslaw has been assembled, place the chicken on the grill and cook, basting with the remaining ½ cup BBQ sauce, until cooked through and the internal   temperature is 165°F.

To Serve

Place a tostada onto a plate and layer with ¼ cup of the prepared coleslaw, sliced chicken breast, and desired garnishes. Serve immediately with more BBQ sauce on the side.
