Рецепт Chicken Avocado Tostadas
Inspired by the flavors of Guatemala, this tasty appetizer or snack is perfect for serving to company. The lime gives it just a little tang, without being too overwhelming and the chicken is cooked to perfection with the aroma of herbs blending nicely with fresh parsley. Add all this together with the firm, creamy avocado and top a crunchy tostada and you’ve got a dish fit for a king! A Mayan one, at least.
