Step 1
Boil chicken breasts in chicken broth with half an onion and 2 garlic cloves until cooked through. Shred chicken and reserve broth.
Step 2
In a blender, combine diced tomatoes, chipotle peppers, adobo sauce, remaining garlic, and a splash of reserved chicken broth. Blend until smooth.
Step 3
Slice the remaining half onion thinly. Sauté in a large pan with a tablespoon of oil until softened.
Step 4
Add the blended sauce to the pan with the onions. Bring to a simmer, then add shredded chicken and oregano. Cook for 10-15 minutes, allowing flavors to meld.
Step 5
Warm tostadas in the oven or a dry pan for a few minutes until crisp.
Step 6
Assemble tostadas: spread a layer of chicken tinga, top with sliced avocado, a dollop of Mexican crema, and crumbled queso fresco.
