Instructions

1. 1.
   Begin by warming your tortilla. Heat a small skillet over medium heat and place the tortilla in, allowing it to crisp up. Flip once it begins to bubble and continues to crisp. You'll want both sides golden and crunchy. If it turns dark too soon, reduce the heat.
2. 2.
   While the tortilla crisps, shred the cooked chicken breast finely. You want this done well for even distribution across the tortilla, ensuring every bite has that perfect chicken flavor. Season with salt and pepper for added taste.
3. 3.
   In the same skillet, increase the heat to medium-high and add the drained corn. Stir occasionally, letting it sear slightly. You’re aiming for some golden brown kernels — this gives a wonderful texture and slight nuttiness.
4. 4.
   Take your tortilla and evenly spread the sour cream over one side. This serves as a creamy base and will help the toppings stick. Evenly distribute the shredded chicken across the sour cream, ensuring each area is covered.
5. 5.
   Top the chicken with the seared corn and sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese generously. Place the tostada under a broiler briefly, just until the cheese has melted and started to bubble slightly. Keep a close eye to prevent burning.
