We put in A LOT more chicken (about 4 lbs because one pound of chicken was definitely not going to feed my family of six. We also omitted the chorizo because it tends to make things greasier. This turned out delicious. Don't use less than the whole can of chipotles unless you like bland food or you're feeding a crowd of mostly little kids. Also, the tomato step was a pain in the a**, so next time I'll just use a can of diced tomatoes. This was a really delicious dinner that worked well with leftover chicken. It's also an incredibly affordable recipe!

Marcela I don't know if you read these, but I want you to know that every recipe I have done from you has been wonderful! You have really gotten me in touch with my Mexican roots. This spicy chicken really made dinner more flavorful. I used the left over chicken for green enchiladas and my roommates went crazy over it! You are by far my favorite chef on the food network!

Marcela did it again--this recipe is another home run. I took the dish to my daughter's and I only wish I would have brought twice as much. It disappeared immediately and my daughter, a picky eater wanted the recipe. I brought both the tostada shells and home made tortillas and it was great with both. My husband wants to make it again SOON! Thank you Marcela--everything I have tried from your show and cookbooks have been outstanding. I faithfully watch your show and have learned so much. Mexican Made Easy is my favorite show on Foodnetwork.

This is my favorite dish I have ever made. I would have paid for this at a restaurant. I will make it over and over. However, I don't care for tostada shells so I used homemade corn tortillas. You need at least two tortillas per taco because it can get a bit messy. LOVED THIS!!!

OMG.......I could eat this everyday!!!! My hubby loves it as much as I do!!!!! This works well in tacos & burritos too, also freezes well. I started making this in double & triple batches, just to freeze the extras.

I knew as soon as I watched this episode, it was what we were having for dinner. Served it with a side of Creamy Corn Cups and the meal was amazing! We often share meals with our neighbors as our families are close. Everyone was asking for more. We also offered some finely shredded cabbage as a topping for those who thought it was a bit too spicy, took the bite off enough for the kids to enjoy it as well.
Thanks for the great recipe! Its a keeper for sure!

I made this recipe as soon as I finished watching the show. It is Delicious. It is full of flavor. Next time I would use a little less chipotle since It was a bit too spicy for me, but no for my husband. I thought the Chorizo flavor would over power the meal but you are not even able to tell that chorizo was use in the recipe (just by looking at it. Also, her recipe in the website does not mention it, but the tomatoes has to be peel according to the show. I already print it and it is in my go to recipe's book. Great job Marcela! I LOVE your food.

Awesome. Next time I'll use a bit less chipotle as it can be overpowering. Real Mexican taste, love the tomatillos! It would also make a great base for a chili with some pinto beans and then just crush the tostada over it. And don't forget some sour cream... yum.
