1 tablespoon canola oil

2 cloves garlic, chopped, divided

1/4 onion, sliced into strips

2-3 chicken breasts, cooked and shredded

1/2 teaspoon pepper

2 tablespoons chopped pickled jalapenos**

1/2 cup water

1/2 teaspoon fresh oregano, chopped

1 chipotle chile, chopped

4 corn tostadas

1/2 small red onion, diced

1/2 avocado, diced

 

In sauté pan, heat canola oil over medium-high heat. Add half of garlic and onion and sauté until brown. Add shredded chicken and pepper. Cook until heated through. In saucepan over medium heat, combine tomatoes, remaining garlic, jalapenos, water, oregano and chipotle chile. Bring to a boil. Remove from heat. To serve, warm tostadas and divide chicken mixture equally on each tostada. Garnish with onion and avocado.
