SUMMER TACOS WITH CORN, GREEN BEANS AND TOMATILLO SALSA



Summer Tacos with Corn, Green Beans and Tomatillo Salsa image

Another way to use the versatile green bean in summer cooking. Cut into one-inch lengths and add to a mix of corn, chiles and green tomatillo salsa. Green beans are such a reliable and versatile summer vegetable. I serve them on their own, of course, but I also throw them into various pasta dishes and salads, and here I've used them in a taco filling. Cook the beans first, just until tender, then cut them into one-inch lengths and add to this sweet and spicy mix of corn, chiles and green tomatillo salsa.

Two Mexican party favorites are combined in this delicious green salsa. We love the roasted flavors of the tomatillo, pepper and scallions paired with the peppery and earthy notes of the tequila.

Time 1h15m

Yield 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 tomatillos, husks removed and halved
2 poblano chiles, halved and seeded
1 bunch scallions, trimmed
Vegetable oil, for drizzling
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup tequila
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
Juice of 1 lime
Tortilla chips, for serving

Steps:

  • Place the tomatillos, poblanos and scallions on a rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle with vegetable oil and season with salt and pepper. Place under the broiler and cook until well charred, turning once, about 5 minutes per side. When cool enough to handle, remove the skin from the poblanos.
  • Add the charred vegetables to a food processor along with the tequila, chili powder, lime juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a pinch of black pepper. Pulse until smooth but still slightly chunky. Remove to a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Refrigerate until chilled, at least 1 hour or overnight. Serve with tortilla chips.

Tips:

  • For a crispier taco shell, heat the oil to 375°F before frying the tortillas.
  • To make the salsa ahead of time, simply combine all of the ingredients in a blender or food processor and store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
  • If you don't have any tomatillos, you can substitute diced tomatoes.
  • If you don't have any green beans, you can substitute another type of vegetable, such as zucchini or bell peppers.
  • To make the tacos vegetarian, simply omit the chicken or beef.

Conclusion:

These tacos are a delicious and easy meal that can be made with a variety of ingredients. The green beans, chiles, and tomatillo salsa add a unique flavor that is sure to please everyone at your table. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dinner, give these tacos a try!
