Instructions

1. Prep Shrimp

Step 1

Preheat oven to 425ºF with racks in the center and upper third. Rinse shrimp and pat very dry; season all over with salt and pepper.

2. Toast Tortillas

Step 2

Lightly brush both sides of tortillas with oil. Divide between 2 rimmed baking sheets and arrange in even layers (it's okay if they overlap slightly). Bake on upper and center oven racks until golden and crisp, flipping tortillas and rotating sheets halfway through cooking time, 9–12 minutes (watch closely as ovens vary).

3. Cook Corn and Shrimp

Step 3

Heat 1½ tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Add corn and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned in spots, about 3 minutes. Add shrimp and cook, stirring occasionally, until curled and almost cooked through, about 2 minutes. Add 2 tablespoons butter and ¾ teaspoon granulated garlic; cook until fragrant, 30 seconds.

4. Make Guacamole Creama

Step 4

Into a small bowl, squeeze juice from half a lime. Add guacamole, sour cream, 1 tablespoons oil, and ½ teaspoon salt. Stir to combine and season to taste with salt and pepper. Cut remaining lime into wedges.

5. Assembles Tostadas and Serve

Step 5

Season shrimp and corn to taste with salt and pepper. Top crisped tortillas with guacamole crema, spreading to edges. Top with shrimp and corn. Serve shrimp and corn tostadas with lime wedges alongside for squeezing over top. Enjoy!
