Ingredients

For the pizza:

• 1 (12-count) package mini-flour tortillas (street tacos)
• 1 (16-ounce) can refried beans
• 1/4 cup salsa, plus extra for serving
• 1/2 cup finely chopped red onion
• 1 1/2 cups shredded Mexican cheese blend
• 1/2 cup taco sauce
• 1 1/2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken breast (about 1 large breast)
• 1/2 (1-ounce) package low-sodium taco seasoning mix (2 tablespoons - more or less to taste)

Optional toppings for serving:

• salsa
• pico de gallo
• sour cream
• black beans
• sliced olives
• cherry tomatoes, sliced
• sliced or pickled jalapeños
• limes, sliced into wedges
• shredded lettuce
• avocado, diced
• cilantro leaves
• corn tortillas (optional in place of the flour tortillas)

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 400F.
2. Place 6 flour tortillas on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake for 5 to 10 minutes or until lightly toasted. Remove from the oven and stack on a plate; set aside. Repeat with the remaining tortillas. Leave the oven on to bake the pizzas.
3. Place the refried beans in a small saucepan and add 1/4 cup of salsa. Stir to combine. Warm over medium-low heat while preparing the other ingredients.
4. Mix the taco seasoning with 2 tablespoons of water in a medium, microwave safe bowl. Add the shredded chicken and toss to coat. Cover the bowl and microwave until the chicken is heated through, about 2 minutes, stirring halfway through.
5. Place 6 of the toasted tortillas back on the baking sheet. Top each with about 1/4 cup of refried beans, spreading evenly to the edges of the tortilla. Sprinkle each with 1 tablespoon of chopped red onion, then 2 tablespoons shredded Mexican cheese blend. Place the remaining 6 toasted tortillas on top of the beans. Divide the taco sauce on top of the tortillas spreading to the edges with a spoon. Divide the seasoned chicken on top of the taco sauce. Sprinkle any remaining onion over the chicken, then top with the remaining shredded cheese.
6. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes or until the cheese is melted. Serve with optional toppings as desired.
