Steps:
- Make the spicy chicken topping:
- Fill a large pot with 8 cups water; stir in 1/4 cup salt. Add chicken and simmer over medium-low heat until just cooked through, about 45 minutes. Drain, then chop or tear chicken into bite-size chunks. Discard bones.
- Meanwhile, purée tomatoes, chiles, adobo sauce, pepper, cinnamon, and cloves in a blender until smooth.
- Cook onion in a large skillet over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until sweet and charred (you want more char than "caramelization"), 8-10 minutes. Add garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and fragrant, about 3 minutes longer.
- Add tomato mixture to skillet (it will splatter), reduce heat, and simmer, partially covered, about 30 minutes. Add chicken and chorizo, if using, and cook, stirring occasionally, until chicken is well-coated and moist and liquid is reduced and thickened, about 10 minutes more. Season with salt, if needed.
- Assemble the tostadas:
- If frying tortillas, fit a large skillet with candy or deep-fry thermometer; pour in oil to measure 1". Heat over medium-high until thermometer registers 375°F. Fry tortillas in batches until crispy, turning every 30 seconds, about 2 minutes total. Drain on paper towel-lined baking sheets and season with salt.
- Spread 1 Tbsp. Creamy Black Bean Spread on a tostada shell. Top with 1/4 cup spicy chicken topping, then lettuce, onion, crema, queso fresco, and cilantro. Repeat with remaining tostada shells. Serve at room temperature.
- Do Ahead
- Spicy chicken topping can be chilled for up to 3 days. Reheat and let cool to room temperature before using.

SPICY CHICKPEA TOSTADAS - MEXICAN PLEASE
From mexicanplease.com
- Start by peeling the garlic clove and roughly chopping 1/2 onion. Cook the onion and garlic in a glug of oil over medium heat (you can leave the garlic clove whole).
- Once the onion is starting to brown, approximately 5-8 minutes, add 1 can chickpeas (drained and rinsed), 2 chipotles in adobo, 1/4 teaspoon cumin, 1/4 teaspoon salt, freshly cracked black pepper, and 1/2 cup stock (or water). Let simmer for a few minutes until heated through and then add everything to a blender, combining well.
- Take a taste for seasoning and heat. I added another generous pinch of salt and cumin to this batch, but I was happy with the heat level.
- For the tostadas you can warm up store-bought tostada shells or bake your own. Then simply add a layer of the chickpea puree, diced avocado, pickled jalapenos, Queso Fresco, and some freshly chopped cilantro. Serve immediately. Keep in mind that you can customize the tostadas to your palate (and based on what's in the kitchen!).

- In a medium-sized bowl, combine the chickpeas spices, salt and sugar, and mix until chickpeas are well coated in the spices. Heat 3 tbsp olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot and shimmering, add in the chickpeas, and cook, stirring occasionally until they are golden and crisp, about 15 minutes.
- While chickpeas are cooking, make the avocado crema and slaw. For the crema, add all ingredients to a small blender* and blend until smooth. For the slaw, combine the shredded cabbage, lime juice, chopped cilantro and salt in a bowl, and toss lightly.
- Set the oven to broil. Arrange the six tortillas on a large baking sheet and brush the top of each with a little vegetable oil. Place the baking sheet on the top rack of the oven, and broil until crispy, about 5 minutes.
- To assemble the tostadas, spread the avocado crema onto the tortillas, and layer the cabbage slaw and warm chickpeas on top.
