2·11 days agoI would say that it cooking the seafood with vegetables is Asian inspired from the different videos I’ve seen of Asian cooking.
Obviously the specific ingredients are not accurate but it was still very good.


Haha thanks! For some reason tostadas aren’t as popular outside of Mexico unless you have proximity to Mexicans. They are very simple but also very good.
People in the US sometimes call them chalupas but those are actually something else. Here are some authentic chicken tostada recipes from books my mother has that are older than me.
"CHICKEN TOSTADAS
Ingredients:
Cooked and shredded chicken breast
2 tablespoons of oil
1 large tomato
1 clove of garlic
4 green chiles
1/2 sliced onion, cream to taste
12 tostadas
1/2 chopped lettuce
Sliced avocado
Salt to taste
Preparation:
In a skillet with the oil, fry the onion until translucent.
Separately, blend the tomato with the garlic, chiles, and salt.
Strain the mixture and pour it into the skillet with the onion. Let it simmer for 5 minutes over low heat. Add the cream and mix well. Remove from heat.
Cover the tostadas with lettuce and top with some of the mixture. Garnish with avocado.
Serve immediately"
"CHICKEN AND CREAM TOSTADAS
INGREDIENTS:
12 tostadas
2 shredded chicken breasts
1 crumbled queso fresco
2 tablespoons chopped onion
PROCEDURE:
1 shredded lettuce
1 small can of jalapeño pepper strips
salt, as needed.
Fry the tostadas just enough to soften them when heated, then drain.
Top each tostada with cream, chicken, cheese, onion, lettuce, and a few jalapeño pepper strips, and salt to taste. Serve immediately"
