Ingredients
Method
In food processor, pulse beans with salsa until in coarse paste with some larger chunks remaining; set aside.
Place cornmeal on large plate. Sprinkle fish all over with chili powder and salt; dredge in cornmeal, turning to coat and shaking off excess.
In large nonstick skillet, heat half of the oil over medium heat; cook half of the fish, flipping once, until fish flakes easily when tested, 4 to 6 minutes. Transfer to cutting board; wipe pan clean. Repeat with remaining oil and fish. Break fish into large chunks.
Top tostadas with bean mixture, fish, avocados, jalapeño pepper and cilantro. Serve with sour cream and lime wedges (if using).
