GRILLED-CHICKEN TOSTADAS WITH TOMATILLO-CILANTRO SALSA

Steps:
- Smashed Kidney Beans: Heat oil in a saucepan over medium-high. Add onion; cook until translucent, about 4 minutes. Add coriander, chipotle in adobo, and 1/2 teaspoon salt; cook 30 seconds more. Add cinnamon, beans with liquid, and broth; bring to a boil and cook, stirring occasionally, until reduced and thickened slightly, about 5 minutes more. Remove from heat.
- Smash beans with a fork or potato masher until creamy and spreadable, leaving some intact. Let cool until warm but no longer hot before serving (if beans are too hot, tostada shells will become soft), or refrigerate in an airtight container up to 5 days (return to room temperature before serving). (Makes 2 1/4 cups.)
- Tostadas: Heat a large skillet (preferably cast iron) over high. Add tomatillos, onion, garlic, and jalapenos in a single layer and cook, turning a few times, until blistered in places, about 5 minutes. Let cool slightly, then transfer to a blender with 1 cup packed cilantro leaves and stems, broth, lime juice, and 3/4 teaspoon salt. Puree until smooth.
- Season chicken with salt and pepper. Return skillet to medium-high heat; swirl in oil. Add chicken in a single layer and cook, flipping once, until golden brown in places but not cooked through, about 3 minutes. Add 2 cups salsa (reserve the rest); reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, turning chicken a few times, until just cooked through and salsa has thickened and darkened slightly, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from heat; let cool 10 minutes. Using 2 forks, shred chicken in skillet into bite-size pieces, tossing to evenly coat.
- Spread 2 tablespoons smashed beans onto each tostada shell. Top with shredded-chicken mixture, avocado, crema, cabbage, remaining salsa, and more cilantro; serve with lime wedges.

SALSA VERDE CHICKEN TOSTADAS (CROCKPOT)
Super easy, healthy and delicious! Cook the chicken with jarred salsa verde and serve over crisp corn tortillas with a crunchy slaw on top! I didn't think I'd like the slaw, I'm not a fan of red cabbage...but it was sooooo good! We had to make more slaw to eat with the leftovers, because it really MADE the dish! A great make ahead meal to reheat and assemble on a busy night! Recipe adapted from skinnytaste.com

Steps:
- COOK CHICKEN: Lay chicken in the bottom of a crock pot and season with garlic powder, oregano, cumin, salt and pepper. Pour salsa verde over top. Cover and cook for 2 hours on high.
- Remove chicken from the sauce and shred with two forks...(I use my kitchenaide with the paddle, it takes about 20 seconds!) FINISH CHICKEN: Stir enough sauce into the shredded chicken to moisten it-you will not need all the liquid. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Proceed to make your tostadas, or place in a leftover container and refrigerate until needed.
- SLAW PREPARATION: Toss shredded red cabbage, lime juice, salt and cilantro in a bowl.
- TO MAKE YOUR OWN TOSTADAS FROM CORN TORTILLAS: spritz tortillas with a misto sprayer, or Pam type oil spray, place on a baking sheet and bake @ 325 for 10-12 minutes, flipping each one over every 5 minutes or so until crisp.
- TOSTADA ASSEMBLY: Sprinkle 1-2 TBSP shredded cheese over tostada shell, place in oven 3-5 minutes until cheese is melted. Spoon approximately 1/4c chicken mixture over the cheese and top with some slaw. Optional: pickled jalapeno slices, avocado/guacamole, sour cream etc.
