This Crock Pot Chicken Tostada Pie is adapted from a recipe I found in Gooseberry Patch’s Weeknight Dinners. When I saw it, I knew I could use my crock pot to make it using the same foil method I used when I made the ah-mazingย Crock Pot Beefy Tostada Pie. Both recipes are super yummy, so you can answer the age-old question…chicken or beef? ๐Ÿ˜‰

Ingredients forย Crock Pot Chicken Tostada Pie

  • 4 burrito size flour tortillas, divided
  • 2-3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cooked and diced
  • 3/4 cup salsa
  • 2.25 oz can sliced black olives, drained
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 2 cup shredded Cheddar cheese, divided
  • Garnish: sour cream, olives, sliced green onions
  • 3 strips of heavy duty aluminum foil 18 inch x 2 inches (or 18โ€ณ x 4โ€ณ regular aluminum foil folded in half to make 18โ€ณx 2โ€ณ strips)

How to Make Chicken Tostada Pie in a Crock Pot

  1. Spray a 6-quart crock potย lightly with cooking spray
  2. Place your first foil piece (handle) down the side of your crock pot, across the bottom and up the other side, leaving โ€œhandlesโ€ at each end, repeat with other two foil strips in a wheel spoke type design so the handles are evenly placed around the top of your crock pot
  3. Lay your first tortilla on top of the foil in the bottom of your crock pot
  4. In a separate bowl, mix together your cooked chicken cubes, salsa, olives, cumin and 1 cup of cheddar
  5. Spoon a third of your chicken mixture on top of your first tortilla
  6. Top with a tortilla and repeat layers with remaining chicken and tortillas, ending with a tortilla on top
  7. Sprinkle remaining cheese on top
  8. Place 2-4 paper towels under your lid, cover and cook on high for 60-90 minutes
  9. Lift up your Crock Pot Chicken Tostada Pie by the foil handles and gently place on a serving plate
  10. Cut into pieces like a pie and served with sour cream, olives and sliced green onions, if desired

Crock Pot Chicken Tostada Pie Notes

  • Another thing I recommend is reheating it in the oven instead of the microwave. If you do it this way, it makes the leftovers wonderfully crisp instead of soggy.
  • As with any of our recipes, calorie counts and nutritional information varies greatly depending on which products you choose to use when cooking this dish.
  • All slow cookers cook differently, so cooking times are always a basic guideline and shouldย always be tested first in your own slow cooker and time adjusted as needed.

    Haven’t tried this one yet but intend to. Most of your crock pot recipes are so good and I’ve tried a few, all so far we have loved. Keep it up!
