Best 8 Tostadas With Goat Cheese And Salsa Recipes

PASTA CASSEROLE WITH GOAT CHEESE AND SALSA

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, add the farfalle and boil until al dente, about seven minutes. Drain, season to taste with salt and pepper and toss with 1 1/2 tablespoons of the olive oil.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Oil an oblong 9-by-13-inch baking dish with one-half tablespoon of the oil.
• Spread one-third of the farfalle in the baking dish. Spread with half the pepper salsa, then top with half the goat cheese. Repeat the layers. Cover with the remaining farfalle, then sprinkle with bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese. Drizzle with the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil.
• Place in the oven and bake 35 to 40 minutes.

GRILLED STEAK TOSTADAS

Steps:

• Prepare an outdoor grill for high heat.
• Whisk the coffee, chili powder, oil, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a shallow baking dish. Add the skirt steak, turn to coat, set aside at room temperature to marinate for about 20 minutes.
• While the steak marinates, brush the onion slices lightly with oil and grill, flipping occasionally, until soft and lightly charred, about 15 minutes; set aside. Drain the steak and grill, flipping once until medium-rare on the inside with deep grill marks, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer the steaks to a cutting board to rest for 5 minutes and then thinly slice against the grain.
• Top each tostada with a mound of steak, some grilled onions and cilantro leaves. Serve with sliced avocado, Mexican crema, crumbled Cotija cheese, pickled jalapeno, shredded lettuce and/or lime wedges.

TOSTADAS WITH GOAT CHEESE AND SALSA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Lightly oil 2 baking sheets with olive oil. Arrange tortillas on the baking sheets.
• Spread salsa on the tortillas and sprinkle with cilantro. Top with goat cheese and chives.
• Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden. Cut each tostada into 4 wedges and serve hot as an appetizer.
• If you like it hot, add a few jalapeno slices to each wedge.

SALSA-BAKED GOAT CHEESE

Steps:

• 1. Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Spread out the nuts on a baking sheet and toast them in the oven until lightly browned and very fragrant, 7 or 8 minutes (the pine nuts will brown quicker than either of the others). Remove and slide them off into a medium-size bowl.
• 2. Add the cheeses to the bowl and combine thoroughly with the nuts. Scoop it in the center of a baking dish (I like to use a decorative 9-inch pie pan) and form it into a 5-inch-diameter disk. Spoon the salsa over and around the cheese. Place the dish in the oven and bake until heated through, 10 to 15 minutes. Sprinkle on the cilantro and set it out for your guests to enjoy as a dip or a spread.

CHICKEN, BLACK BEAN AND GOAT CHEESE TOASTADAS

Cover and chill.)
• Make chicken:
• Heat oil in heavy large skillet over high heat. Add chicken and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Stir until almost cooked through, about 3 minutes. Add chili powder and cumin and stir until cooked through, about 30 seconds. Remove from heat.
• Make Salad:
• Combine first 3 ingredients in large bowl.
• Add oil to depth of 1/4 inch to heavy medium skillet. Heat over medium-high heat until just beginning to smoke. Add tortilla and cook until crisp, abut 30 seconds per side. Drain on paper towels. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
• Add 1/4 cup olive oil to salad; toss Season with salt and pepper. Add 1 tablespoon lime juice; toss. Rewarm beans over medium-low heat, stirring and thinning slightly with water. Place 1 tortilla on each plate. Spread with beans. Sprinkle with cheese. Top with salad, then chicken, salsa and cilantro.

SALSA BAKED GOAT CHEESE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350F.
• Spread the nuts on a baking sheet and toast them in the oven until lightly browned and very fragrant, 7-8 minutes should do it.
• Transfer to a medium bowl Add the cheeses to the bowl and combine thoroughly with the nuts.
• Scoop the cheese mixture into the center of a baking dish, such as a decorative 9" pie plate, and form into a 5" disk.
• Spoon te salsa over and around the cheese.
• Bake until heated through, 10-15 minutes.
• Sprinkle with the cilantro and serve as a dip or a spread with tortilla chips or other crisps*Note: if the salsa is very chunky, you may want to strain it or chop it in a food processor so the pieces won't fall off the chips.
• Also, really good if the chips are heated!

TUNA TOSTADAS

Steps:

• Mix tuna, mayonnaise, and salsa together in a bowl. Set aside.
• Heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat in a frying pan. Add tortillas in batches and fry until golden and slightly crisp, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Spread tuna mixture over tortillas evenly. Top with tomato, spinach, and onions. Sprinkle with Cheddar cheese and top with avocado slices.

Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until thickened, 6 to 7 minutes.
• Preheat broiler. Place 4 tortillas on a rimmed baking sheet brushed with oil. Divide cheese among them, piled in centers, and top with remaining tortillas. Brush tops with oil. Broil, rotating sheet once, until tops are crisp, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Flip and broil until second sides are crisp, 2 to 3 minutes more. Smash beans with the back of a spoon and spread mixture over tostadas. Top with lettuce, radishes, salsa, and cilantro leaves; serve.
