Ingredients
  

Tuna Mixture
  • 1 lb sushi-grade tuna, diced Use fresh and high-quality sushi-grade tuna for best taste.
  • 1 ripe avocado, diced
  • 2 pieces green onions, chopped For garnish.
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon lime juice
  • 1 chipotle pepper in adobo sauce, minced Add more for extra spiciness.
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise For the chipotle mayo.
  • 4 pieces tostada shells Use crispy tostadas.
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the diced sushi-grade tuna, soy sauce, sesame oil, lime juice, and minced chipotle pepper. Gently fold the ingredients together while being careful not to mash the tuna. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  2. In a separate bowl, mix the mayonnaise with a bit more minced chipotle pepper if you like a stronger flavor to create chipotle mayo.
Assembly
  1. On each tostada shell, place a generous layer of the diced avocado.
  2. Top it with the tuna mixture and a drizzle of the chipotle mayo.
  3. Garnish with chopped green onions.
Serving
  1. Serve immediately and enjoy the crispy, savory goodness!

Notes

Ensure tostadas are crispy. Can toast them lightly in the oven for extra crunch. Adjust heat level by adding more or less chipotle pepper. Prepare tuna mixture ahead of time but assemble tostadas just before serving.
