These Blackstone Griddle Sushi Tostadas were part of my Blackstone High Protein Meal Prep, and you can also make them on their own. This fusion recipe combines crisp griddled tortillas with a creamy, spicy shrimp and crab mixture and a simple avocado spread—perfect for a weeknight meal or an appetizer when you want something fun and different from the griddle.
This is a playful griddle mash-up—sushi flavors translated into a tostada you can pick up and enjoy. The recipe is flexible: use shrimp from meal prep, grill fresh shrimp while toasting the tortillas, or swap in your favorite seafood.
I prepped shrimp, steak, and chicken earlier in the week and used the shrimp for these tostadas. The leftovers came together quickly on the griddle and made for several tasty meals.
How to make Blackstone Griddle Sushi Tostadas
Start with corn tortillas—you’ll crisp them directly on the griddle for the best texture and flavor.
Preheat your Blackstone or flat top griddle to medium to medium-low. Add a small amount of cooking oil and place 6 corn tortillas on the surface. Cook for 7 to 10 minutes, flipping a few times until they reach the level of crispness you like. Remove and let drain while you finish the shrimp.
If your shrimp are already cooked from meal prep, warm them on the griddle; otherwise add raw peeled and deveined jumbo shrimp and cook until opaque. Season with kosher salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and a squeeze of lemon or lime. Cook about 3 to 4 minutes, stirring occasionally, then remove and let cool slightly.
In a bowl, combine the cooked shrimp (roughly chopped), diced imitation crab, and 1/4 cup mayo or blended cottage cheese for a higher-protein option. Add 1 to 2 tablespoons sriracha to taste and mix until evenly combined.
In a separate bowl, mash one large avocado with a pinch of kosher salt, black pepper, and a squeeze of lemon or lime. Mash to a spreadable consistency using a fork.
To assemble, spread the avocado evenly across each crisp tortilla. Spoon the shrimp and crab mixture on top and finish with your favorite toppings—spicy mayo, a ginger-soy glaze, sesame seeds, and chopped chives all work well.
These hold up nicely as a casual meal or as finger-food for a gathering. The contrast of the crispy tortilla with creamy avocado and a spicy, seafood-forward topping is what makes them so satisfying.
