Ingredients
Tostadas
- 4 pieces corn tostadas - store-bought or homemade for best flavor
- 500 grams minced rabbit - preferably wild for a gamey flavor
- 200 grams cremini mushrooms - finely chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil - extra virgin
1 medium onion - finely chopped
2 cloves garlic - minced
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 tablespoon lime juice - freshly squeezed
1 pinch salt - to taste, season according to preference
1 pinch ground black pepper - to taste, season according to preference
¼ cup cilantro - fresh, chopped, for garnish
Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add the onions and sauté until soft and translucent, approximately 5 minutes.
- Introduce the garlic, cooking for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
- Add the minced rabbit, stirring regularly, and cook for about 8-10 minutes, until browned and cooked through.
- Incorporate the mushrooms, cumin, and smoked paprika—cook for another 5 minutes until the mushrooms are tender and mixed well with the rabbit.
- Season with salt, pepper, and lime juice. Stir to combine.
- Warm the tostadas in a low oven or on a grill, just until they’re crisp and hot.
- Spoon the rabbit and mushroom mixture generously over each tostada.
- Finish with a sprinkle of fresh cilantro before serving.
Notes
For a milder taste, substitute rabbit with ground chicken. You can also use a mixture of wild and regular mushrooms for added flavor complexity.
