  1. 1Preheat oven to 400°F (convection if you have it) and drizzle 2 baking sheets with avocado oil.
  2. 2Coat tortillas in oil on both sides and bake for 7 minutes, flip tortillas over and add Mexican cheese on each tortilla, and bake for 4-5 more minutes until golden brown and crispy.
  3. 3Let cool for a couple mins to crisp up.
  4. 4In a large pan over medium heat, sauté the diced onion in olive oil for 2-3 mins then add the green chiles, cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, and salt; sauté for 2-3 more mins so the spices bloom then add the chicken and green salsa; stir to combine and turn off the heat.
  5. 5Heat the refried beans in the microwave or on the stove; spread a thin layer of beans on the tostada and top with a sprinkle of shredded Mexican cheese, chicken, onions, cilantro, and cotija cheese.
