RECIPE: Beef and Corn Tacos With Garlicky Roasted Peppers

Serves 4

Hands-On Time: 25m

Total Time: 25m

Ingredients

·                                 2 bell peppers, each cut into 8 pieces

·                                 2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced

·                                 2 tablespoons olive oil

·                                 kosher salt and black pepper

·                                 1 small onion, chopped

·                                 1 pound ground beef chuck

·                                 1 cup frozen corn

·                                 2 teaspoons ground ancho chili powder or standard chili powder

·                                 8 corn tortillas, warmed

·                                 cut-up avocado, grated Cheddar, salsa, and lime wedges, for serving

Directions

1. Heat oven to 450° F. On a rimmed baking sheet, toss the bell peppers and garlic with 1 tablespoon of the oil and ¼ teaspoon each salt and black pepper. Roast until tender, 12 to 14 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, heat the remaining tablespoon of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and ½ teaspoon salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until beginning to brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the beef, corn, and chili powder and cook, stirring occasionally, until the beef is browned, 6 to 8 minutes more.

3. Divide the beef mixture among the tortillas and top with the avocado, Cheddar, salsa, and cilantro. Serve with the bell peppers and lime wedges.
