This easy chicken salad includes diced jalapenos, which make it spicy and delicious. You can eat it with crackers, but it tastes much better with tostadas. Ingredients:
vegetable oil for frying |
10 corn tortillas |
1 (10 ounce) can chunk chicken, drained and flaked |
1/2 cup mayonnaise |
2 1/2 tablespoons canned jalapeno pepper slices, undrained |
1 tablespoon pickled jalapeno pepper juice |
salt and pepper to taste |
Directions:
1. Heat oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. One at a time, slip a tortilla into the hot oil. If the tortilla starts to puff up, press it down with a fork. When crisp and brown, remove to paper towels. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
2. Place the chicken in a bowl, and separate with a fork. Stir in the mayonnaise. Dice the jalapenos (reserving the liquid), and stir them into chicken salad. Pour in 1 tablespoon jalapeno juice, season with salt and pepper, and stir well. To serve, spread the chicken salad on the tostadas.
