Shrimp Tostadas with Chipotle Peach Salsa- This is a delicious tostada recipe with sautéed shrimp, black beans and a sweet and spicy peach salsa. Tostadas are great for a weeknight meal- kids love them, they’re light but full of flavor, and you can combine all kinds of ingredients to make them (ie. great way to clean out the fridge!).

The ingredient list may look long, and it doesn’t include the Peach Salsa recipe (I’ve included a link to that recipe) but most of the ingredients are spices. If you have your spices organized (says the one who spent 10 minutes looking for the oregano :() you can make it in a snap. The shrimp, salsa, and even the beans can easily be made a day in advance.

Shrimp Tostadas Recipe Tips

If you wanted to make this recipe super quick and easy, you could always use a jarred salsa. But making fresh salsa is definitely worth the effort.

I love black beans, but a can of refried beans could also be subbed.

I always try to use fresh shrimp, but frozen shrimp can be used instead. Just be sure to fully thaw them first.

Don’t forget the Chipotle Peach Salsa. It has a wonderful sweet, smoky and spicy flavor.

Ingredients

Equipment Large Nonstick Skillet, Rimmed Baking Sheet

Steps

  1. 1

    Combine the paprika, oregano, onion powder, garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon ancho chili powder, and salt in a small bowl. Sprinkle mixture on shrimp.

  2. 2

    Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add shrimp and cook for 2 to 3 minutes or until cooked through. Set aside.

  3. 3

    In a small saucepan, heat 1 tablespoon of oil and cook onion for 3 minutes. Add garlic and cook 1 more minute.

  4. 4

    Add beans, 1/2 teaspoon ancho chili powder and water. Mash the beans up some with a fork and cook until they are heated through. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

  5. 5

    Heat oven to 375 degrees. Spray each side of tortillas liberally with cooking spray. Place on a baking sheet and place in the oven for 2 to 3 minutes. Flip over and bake another 2 minutes.

  6. 6

    Top each tortilla with 1/4 of the bean mixture and 2 tablespoons of cheese. Place back in oven until cheese is melted.

  7. 7

    Top with shrimp, salsa, and cilantro. Serve.

Notes

I really recommend using ancho chili powder rather than regular chili powder. It has much more flavor and smokiness. Chipotle chili powder would also be good.
