00:01These shrimp tostadas deliver crisp shells, zesty shrimp salad, and a creamy cilantro lime sauce,

00:09creating vibrant flavors and textures, all in 35 minutes with simple chopping and mixing.

00:14No cooking is needed.

00:16For the shrimp mixture, combine 1.5 pounds of coarsely chopped cooked shrimp with 1.5 cups of

00:22chopped English cucumber, 8 thinly sliced radishes, 4 chopped plum tomatoes, 4 chopped green onions,

00:292 seeded and minced jalapenos, 2 tablespoons each of minced cilantro and lime juice, 3

00:35minced garlic cloves, 1 teaspoon of salt, 1 quarter teaspoon of black pepper, and 1 cubed

00:41ripe avocado.

00:42For the cilantro lime sauce, combine 1 cup of sour cream with 2 tablespoons of minced fresh

00:48cilantro, 1 teaspoon of grated lime zest, 1 tablespoon of lime juice, 1 quarter teaspoon

00:53of salt, 1 quarter teaspoon of ground cumin, and 1 eighth teaspoon of black pepper.

00:59Use tostada shells for assembling the final dish.

01:02In a large bowl, gently combine the shrimp with the cucumber, radishes, tomatoes, green onions,

01:07jalapenos, cilantro, lime juice, garlic, salt, and pepper until everything is evenly mixed.

01:14Fold in the avocado carefully to keep the pieces intact.

01:17Let the mixture rest for a few minutes so the flavors meld and create a light, natural dressing.

01:21In a separate bowl, whisk the sour cream with cilantro, lime zest, lime juice, salt, cumin,

01:28and pepper until smooth and tangy.

01:31Adjust the consistency with a little extra lime juice if needed.

01:35Spread a thin layer of the cilantro lime sauce onto each tostada shell, keeping a small border

01:40around the edges to avoid overflow.

01:43Top each tostada generously with the shrimp mixture and serve right away to maintain the

01:47shell's crispness.

01:49Leftover shrimp mixture lasts two days, refrigerated but shouldn't be frozen.

01:53To double the recipe, mix in two bowls.

01:56For gatherings, keep components separate so guests can assemble crisp tostadas.
