Steps:
- Make the spicy chicken topping:
- Fill a large pot with 8 cups water; stir in 1/4 cup salt. Add chicken and simmer over medium-low heat until just cooked through, about 45 minutes. Drain, then chop or tear chicken into bite-size chunks. Discard bones.
- Meanwhile, purée tomatoes, chiles, adobo sauce, pepper, cinnamon, and cloves in a blender until smooth.
- Cook onion in a large skillet over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until sweet and charred (you want more char than "caramelization"), 8-10 minutes. Add garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and fragrant, about 3 minutes longer.
- Add tomato mixture to skillet (it will splatter), reduce heat, and simmer, partially covered, about 30 minutes. Add chicken and chorizo, if using, and cook, stirring occasionally, until chicken is well-coated and moist and liquid is reduced and thickened, about 10 minutes more. Season with salt, if needed.
- Assemble the tostadas:
- If frying tortillas, fit a large skillet with candy or deep-fry thermometer; pour in oil to measure 1". Heat over medium-high until thermometer registers 375°F. Fry tortillas in batches until crispy, turning every 30 seconds, about 2 minutes total. Drain on paper towel-lined baking sheets and season with salt.
- Spread 1 Tbsp. Creamy Black Bean Spread on a tostada shell. Top with 1/4 cup spicy chicken topping, then lettuce, onion, crema, queso fresco, and cilantro. Repeat with remaining tostada shells. Serve at room temperature.
- Do Ahead
- Spicy chicken topping can be chilled for up to 3 days. Reheat and let cool to room temperature before using.

Steps:
- Bring pork, quartered onion, smashed garlic, thyme, 1 tsp salt and 6 cups water to simmer in large saucepan over medium-high heat, skimming off any foam that rises to the surface. Reduce heat to medium-low, partially cover and cook until pork is tender, 75-90 minutes. Drain pork, reserving 1 cup cooking liquid. Discard onion, garlic and thyme. Return pork to saucepan and using potato masher, mash until shredded into rough 1/2" pieces. Set aside.
- Heat olive oil in 12" nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add shredded pork, chopped onion and oregano; cook, stirring often until pork is well browned and crisp, 7-10 minutes. Add minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
- Stir in tomato sauce, chipotle powder, reserved pork cooking liquid and bay leaves; simmer until almost all liquid has evaporated, 5-7 minutes. Remove and discard bay leaves and season to taste with salt.
- To fry tostadas, heat vegetable oil in 8" heavy bottomed skillet over medium heat to 350 degrees. Using fork, poke center of each tortilla 3-4 times (to prevent puffing and allow for even cooking). Fry 1 at a time, holding tortilla down to keep it submerged. Drain on paper towel lined plate and season with salt to taste.
- Spoon small amount of shredded pork onto center of each tostada and serve with garnishes.

- Start by peeling the garlic clove and roughly chopping 1/2 onion. Cook the onion and garlic in a glug of oil over medium heat (you can leave the garlic clove whole).
- Once the onion is starting to brown, approximately 5-8 minutes, add 1 can chickpeas (drained and rinsed), 2 chipotles in adobo, 1/4 teaspoon cumin, 1/4 teaspoon salt, freshly cracked black pepper, and 1/2 cup stock (or water). Let simmer for a few minutes until heated through and then add everything to a blender, combining well.
- Take a taste for seasoning and heat. I added another generous pinch of salt and cumin to this batch, but I was happy with the heat level.
- For the tostadas you can warm up store-bought tostada shells or bake your own. Then simply add a layer of the chickpea puree, diced avocado, pickled jalapenos, Queso Fresco, and some freshly chopped cilantro. Serve immediately. Keep in mind that you can customize the tostadas to your palate (and based on what's in the kitchen!).
