Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C) to ensure your tortillas get nice and crispy.
  2. Arrange the corn tortillas in a single layer on your baking sheet. Brush both sides with canola oil and bake for about 10 minutes, flipping halfway through.
  3. In a skillet over medium heat, combine the shredded rotisserie chicken, salsa, taco seasoning, corn, and drained black beans. Stir and cook for about 5 minutes until heated through.
  4. Top each crispy tortilla with about ½ cup of the heated chicken mixture, then sprinkle with cheese.
  5. Return the tortillas to the oven for another 5 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  6. Remove the tostadas from the oven and garnish each with fresh cilantro, diced tomatoes, and a squeeze of lime juice. Serve immediately.
