  • Cook the chicken properly: The chicken should be cooked through but not dry. Shred the chicken into bite-sized pieces.
  • Use a good quality tortilla: A sturdy tortilla will hold up better to the toppings. Look for tortillas that are made with whole wheat or corn flour.
  • Load up on the toppings: Don't be shy with the toppings! The more toppings, the better. Use a variety of textures and flavors, such as crunchy lettuce, creamy avocado, and tangy salsa.
  • Serve immediately: Tostizzas are best served immediately after they are made. The tortillas will get soggy if they sit for too long.
