Instructions

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F and line a large baking sheet with foil for easy cleanup.
Brush both sides of the tortillas with oil and place them closely together on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 9 to 10 minutes until they are firm but not overly browned.
Allow the tortillas to cool for about 5 minutes.
Flip each tortilla and spread with refried beans, then top with chicken and cheese. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 5 to 6 minutes until heated through and cheese is melted.
Top each tostada with sour cream, diced onion, cherry tomatoes, and cilantro. Serve with hot sauce on the side.
