Description

Delicious tacos combining grilled chicken and creamy street corn for a burst of flavor.


Ingredients

  • 2 lbs Chicken Breasts
  • 1/3 cup Canola Oil
  • 3 tablespoons Fresh Lime Juice
  • 2 cups Cooked Corn
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
  • 6 to 12 Corn Tortillas
  • 1 Avocado
  • 1/2 cup Cotija Cheese


Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix canola oil, lime juice, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Add chicken and marinate for at least 15 minutes.
  2. In another bowl, combine cooked corn with mayonnaise, lime juice, chili powder, cilantro, jalapeño, green onions, and garlic salt.
  3. Grill the marinated chicken over medium-high heat for about 5–7 minutes per side until fully cooked (internal temperature should reach 165°F).
  4. Warm tortillas on the grill for about 30 seconds on each side. Slice grilled chicken into strips and assemble on tortillas with street corn mixture, sliced avocado, cotija cheese, cilantro, sour cream, and taco sauce as desired.

Notes

Consider marinating chicken longer for enhanced flavor and using fresh corn for added smokiness.
