Skip Taco Bell And Make Actual Crispy Chicken Chalupas At Home - Tasting Table
Briefly

Crispy baked chicken chalupas offer a unique twist with a blend of crunchy tortillas and flavorful toppings. The recipe avoids deep-frying, using an oven to achieve crisp tortillas. Topped with refried beans, shredded rotisserie chicken, Monterey Jack cheese, avocado, queso fresco, red onion, and cilantro, they provide a refreshing and filling experience. The chalupas offer a combination of comfort and Mexican flair, appealing to those seeking a new alternative to traditional Mexican dishes. Perfect for serving as a meal or snack, they deliver satisfying flavors and textures that elevate the classic taco experience.
These baked chalupas feature the ultimate combination of textures, flavors, and colors in one package with a distinctly Mexican flair. Cheesy, creamy, and comforting, they taste like a taco but also have a crunch that is not normally associated with the dish. Hearty toppings like shredded chicken, two types of cheese, avocados, salsa, and cilantro makes for a chalupa dish that feels refreshing and filling all at once.
For our chalupas, we use the oven to keep things a little lighter and to avoid the need for deep-frying, while still getting those perfectly crisp tortillas that crackle when you bite into them. Pile them on top of each other, and you've got yourself a perfect Mexican meal like no other.
