These brisket tostadas are a delicious way to use leftover brisket. Crispy tortillas are topped with tender brisket, fresh avocado, and a tangy lime crema.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 corn tortillas
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 2 cups cooked brisket, shredded
  • 1/2 cup beef broth
  • 1/4 cup chopped red onion
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon chili powder
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Brush both sides of the corn tortillas lightly with vegetable oil. Place tortillas on a baking sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes, flipping once, until crispy and golden.
  2. While tortillas are baking, heat the shredded brisket and beef broth in a small saucepan over medium heat until warmed through.
  3. In a small bowl, combine sour cream, lime juice, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well to create the lime crema.
  4. To assemble the tostadas, spread a layer of the warmed brisket mixture over each crispy tortilla.
  5. Top with chopped red onion, fresh cilantro, and sliced avocado.
  6. Drizzle with the lime crema before serving.

Notes

  • For extra spice, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the brisket mixture.
  • You can also add crumbled cheese, such as cotija or queso fresco, for more flavor.
  • These tostadas are best served immediately to maintain their crispiness.
