6 tablespoons  dry white wine           
12 ounces cooked  lobster meat, , sliced           
6 leaves  red-leaf lettuce, shredded

1 small jalapeno pepper, halved and seeded   1 small white onion, halved   
1 clove garlic    
1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves

2 teaspoons freshly squeezed lime juice   

Instructions: 
Preheat oven to 375F degrees.

First, make the salsa: In your food processor, place the jalapeno pepper, onion, garlic, and 1/4 cup of the cilantro leaves; process to a fine mince.

Add the red and yellow tomatoes and pulse to a coarse chop.

Transfer to a bowl, stir in the lime juice, and set aside.

Put the tortillas in the oven, directly on the middle rack; bake for about 5 minutes or until toasted.

Meanwhile, combine the remaining 1/4 cup cilantro leaves and the wine in a nonstick frying pan; cook for 1 minute over low heat, just until liquid begins to smoke.

Stir in the lobster meat, cover, and cook for 3 minutes; remove from the heat.

Put the toasted tortillas on individual serving plates, topped with a handful of lettuce.

Divide the salsa and lobster meat among the 4 tostadas and spoon a little of the cilantro/wine mixture over each serving.
