Tostada Preparation

Prepare the Tortillas
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the corn tortillas one at a time, frying them until they are golden brown and crispy on both sides. Remove from the skillet and set on a paper towel to drain excess oil.

Cook the Meat
In the same skillet, add the ground beef (or shredded chicken/beef). Season with salt and pepper. Cook until the meat is browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat if necessary.
