Hey everyone, Chef Jason here! Dive into refreshing flavors with my Ceviche Tostadas. 🐟🍅🥑 We’ll start by marinating fresh fish in citrus juices, then mixing it with ripe tomatoes, creamy avocado, and zesty cilantro. Spoon this vibrant mixture onto crispy tostada shells for a delightful crunch.

MISE EN PLACE🔪
Directions
PREP🥒
10 minutes before cooking: please preheat your oven to 350F.
Lay the tortillas on a sheet tray and brush with canola oil. Season with S&P Seasoning, then weigh with a rack or second sheet tray so the tortilla doesn’t curl while cooking. Bake until golden brown and crunchy, about for 10-15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, dice the fish into bite-size or smaller pieces–you want them to be small so they don’t fall off the tortilla when you’re eating.
- Slice the onion. Mince the chili peppers. Set aside a few leaves of cilantro for garnish, then mince both the leaves and stems.
Combine the fish, onion, minced cilantro, and chili peppers in a glass bowl. Add the lime juice–leaving a splash for your avocado–and a good pinch of S&P Seasoning and stir to combine. Cover and let refrigerate for 10 minutes.
While the fish is marinating, slice the avocado and season with S&P Seasoning and remaining lime juice. Grate on the garlic.
To Assemble
Let's build these beauties!! Lay a few slices of seasoned avocado on each tostada, place two spoonfuls of ceviche, garnish with a leaf of cilantro, corn nuts, and a dash of your favorite hot sauce. Enjoy!!!
