Time 25m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tablespoon vegetable oil, plus more, for the grill grates
1 clove garlic, quartered
1 jalapeno, quartered, seeded for less heat
1 small onion, quartered
4 tomatillos (about 8 ounces), husked and coarsely chopped
1/2 ripe avocado, seeded, peeled and chopped
Kosher salt
1/4 cup lightly packed fresh cilantro leaves, coarsely chopped, plus whole leaves, for serving
1 1/2 pounds medium shrimp (about 30), peeled and deveined
One 15- to 16-ounce can refried beans
1 head romaine, thinly sliced
8 corn tostadas

Steps:

  • Prepare a grill for medium-high heat; lightly oil the grates.
  • Put the garlic, jalapeno and onion in a food processor and pulse until finely chopped. Add the tomatillos, avocado and 1/2 teaspoon salt and pulse until chopped but still chunky. Transfer to a bowl, stir in the chopped cilantro and adjust the seasoning with additional salt; set aside.
  • Toss the shrimp with the oil and season generously with salt. Grill, turning once, until just cooked through, about 2 minutes per side.
  • Warm the beans in a small skillet over medium heat. Spread a thin layer on each tostada and top with some lettuce and a spoonful of the avocado-tomatillo salsa. Top with 3 to 4 shrimp per tostada and sprinkle with some cilantro leaves.
