Steps:
- Prepare a grill or grill pan for medium-high heat; generously oil grates.
- Lightly brush corn with oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss onion with oil in a small bowl and season with salt and pepper. Grill both, turning often, until tender and charred in spots, 10-15 minutes for corn and 4-5 minutes for onions. Let corn cool slightly. Cut kernels from cobs and transfer to a medium bowl.
- Brush cheese with oil, season with salt and pepper, and grill, turning once, until charred and warmed through, about 2 minutes per side.
- Warm tortillas in a microwave or on cooler area of grill until soft and pliable. Divide cheese among tortillas, then top with corn, onion, avocado, salsa, and cilantro. Serve with lime wedges alongside.
Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Look for ripe tomatoes, fresh herbs, and gooey cheese.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when grilling the tacos. Cook them in batches if necessary to ensure that they get evenly browned and crispy.
- If you don't have a grill, you can also cook the tacos in a skillet over medium heat.
- Serve the tacos with your favorite toppings. Some popular options include guacamole, salsa, sour cream, and shredded lettuce.
