Crazy Good Street Corn Chicken Tacos Recipes

MEXICAN STREET CORN CHICKEN TACOS

Steps:

• Add all ingredients for avocado cream sauce to a food processor and blend until creamy. Set aside.
• Grill corn. If grilling full corn, preheat grill (or grill pan) to high and heat for 10 minutes. Add corn and cook, turning often, until charred all over, about 10 minutes. See recipe notes for how to cook after removing corn from cobs.
• Remove corn from cobs and add diced tomatoes, onion, jalapeno, mayonnaise (or sour cream), lime juice, and salt to a bowl and mix well.
• Mix taco seasoning (cumin, paprika, onion powder, chili powder, cayenne, and salt) in a small bowl.
• Heat oil in cast iron or skillet over medium. Add strips of chicken to pan.
• Cook for about 4 minutes on one side and then sprinkle on taco seasoning over all of the chicken. Give it all a good mix so all of the chicken is coated, and then finish cooking for another 3-4 minutes or until the internal temperature (of the biggest piece) reaches 165 degrees.
• With a taco sized corn or flour tortilla, add strips of chicken, top with the corn salad, a drizzle of avocado cream, and top with crumbled cotija cheese.
• Enjoy!

MEXICAN STREET CORN CHICKEN TACOS

Steps:

• CHICKEN: Combine the lime juice, oil, chipotle powder, garlic, ground cumin, salt in a bowl. Add the chicken and toss using a rubber spatula so that the chicken is coated in the marinade. Allow the chicken to marinate for 30 minutes at room temperature or cover it and let it sit in the refrigerator for up to 8 hours. Lightly spray a nonstick skillet with cooking spray and cook the chicken over medium-high heat 6-10 minutes, flipping halfway through until it cooks through.
• STREET CORN: Combine the corn, scallions, cilantro, cotija cheese, jalapeno, and lime juice in a bowl. Season with a big pinch of salt and pepper. Taste and adjust as needed; set aside.
• SAUCE: whisk together the sour cream, mayo, lime juice, and 1 tablespoon of adobo sauce in a bowl. Taste and add additional adobo sauce and salt as desired.
• TACOS: Warm the tortillas, add chicken, a slice of avocado, street corn, and top with chipotle sauce. Serve with lime wedges if desired.
