1 Prepare Ingredients and Make Creamy Guacamole
Stem, seed, remove ribs, and cut red bell pepper into 1/2" dice.
Halve and peel onion. Cut halves into 1/4" dice.In a mixing bowl, combine guacamole and sour cream. Set aside.Pat shrimp dry and, on a clean cutting board, halve lengthwise. Season all over with seasoning blend. -
2 Bake the Tostadas
Tostadas are a delicious, but messy treat. For this recipe, they can easily be converted to tacos. Simply warm tortillas in oven for 1-2 minutes after completing remaining steps.
Poke tortillas with a fork all over, 10 times for each tortilla.Place tortillas on prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 tsp. olive oil and massage oil into tortillas. Bake in hot oven until browned and crispy, 5-7 minutes.While tortillas bake, make topping. -
3 Start the Topping
Place a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil. Add onion to hot pan and stir occasionally until beginning to soften, 1-2 minutes.
Add red bell pepper and a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir occasionally until lightly charred and tender, 3-5 minutes. -
4 Finish the Topping
Working in batches if necessary, add shrimp and a pinch of pepper to hot pan.
Stir occasionally until shrimp reaches a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, 3-5 minutes.Remove from burner. -
5 Finish the Dish
