Ingredients

8 dried guajillo chiles
3 cloves garlic
2 yellow onions
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
2 lb boneless lamb shoulder or leg roast
3 tbsp olive oil
2 carrots
2 stalks celery
2 cups chicken broth
1 1/2 cups baby arugula

Steps

Soak the guajillo chiles in hot water for 15 minutes, then drain them.
Blend the chiles, three garlic cloves, one onion, oregano, cumin, vinegar, and 1 cup broth until smooth.
Heat the oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat, season the lamb, and brown it on all sides.
Add the carrots, celery, and remaining onion, then cook for 5 minutes.
Pour in the chile sauce and remaining broth, cover the pot, and braise at 325 F for 3 hours 45 minutes.
Shred the lamb when fork-tender and at least 145 F, then spoon it onto the tostada shells.
Top the tostadas with arugula, red onion, and lime juice.
