Steps:
- For the tostadas: Preheat the vegetable oil in a deep-fryer to 350 degrees F. Line a plate with paper towels.
- Fry the tortillas flat until completely crisp, about 1 minute. Drain on the paper towels.
- Cut the tuna into 1/4-inch cubes, discarding large pieces of sinew, and place in a small bowl. Dress the tuna with 2 tablespoons olive oil and some salt and pepper and mix well. Add the shallot. Drain the juice from the lime supremes and add to the radishes in a small bowl. Add the supremes to the tuna mixture and mix well. Chop half the cilantro and add to tuna mixture. Add the remaining tablespoon olive oil to the radishes and season with salt and pepper.
- For the chipotle aioli: Place the chipotles, mayo and lime juice in a mortar and pestle and blend until smooth. Slowly add the oil and season with salt. Spoon into a bowl.
- To compose, spread about 1 1/2 tablespoons chipotle aioli on each of the tostada rounds. Place the tuna mixture on top of the chipotle aioli. Top the tuna with the radish mixture and the remaining cilantro leaves.
MEXICAN TUNA-AVOCADO TOSTADAS
Because it's one of our favorite healthy convenience foods for a quick lunch (or dinner), we've taken canned tuna -- high in protein and Omega-3s -- beyond the classic mayo-laced sandwich salad. Here, rich avocado is swapped in for an easy salad that takes canned tuna to the next level.

SEARED AHI TUNA AND AVOCADO TARTARE
Michael Shrader of Nine Restaurant Group in Palm Springs, Florida, writes: "Both sides of my family cooked a lot when I was growing up, so I've had plenty of inspiration to draw on as a chef. From my mother's Sicilian heritage, I learned about homemade pasta, braised meats, and biscotti-before they became fashionable. My dad is part German, and he was known for his talents working the grill. On my days off from the restaurant, I cook for my wife at home. We tend to eat light, and I cook with foods that are in season since I've never been one for complicated dishes. It's just not my style. I'd rather have sliced tomatoes with a good olive oil or pasta with vegetables than something fussy." A sophisticated, fresh, and spicy dip for tortilla chips or baguette rounds.
