Shrimp and Avocado Tostadas
Tostadas make an easy, satisfying meal, and these can be on the table in about 30 minutes. For ease and speed, we use the oven to crisp the tortillas to make the base. We broil the shrimp, then toss them while still warm with mayonnaise and lime juice so they better absorb the seasonings. Garnish the tostadas with chunks of rich, creamy avocado plus quick-pickled red onion for crunch and tang.

01Heat the oven to 400°F with a rack in the upper-middle position. In a small bowl, stir together the onion, 2 tablespoons lime juice and a pinch of salt; set aside. Brush the tortillas on both sides with 1 tablespoon oil, then place in a single layer on a broiler-safe rimmed baking sheet. Bake until golden brown and crisp, 8 to 10 minutes, flipping once halfway through. Transfer to individual plates; reserve the baking sheet. Heat the oven to broil with a rack 4 inches from the element.
