2 tbsp freshly squeezed lime juice
1 tsp chili powder
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro

Instructions

Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper and sear until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes per side.
Remove the chicken, let it rest for a few minutes, then shred using two forks.
In a bowl, combine corn, mayonnaise (or yogurt), lime juice, chili powder, cilantro, and queso fresco; mix well.
Assemble the tostadas by spreading shredded chicken on each shell, topping generously with the corn mixture.
Drizzle sour cream on top if desired and garnish with extra cilantro and queso fresco.
