Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prep the Vegetables

    Wash and peel the sweet potatoes, then cut them into thin strips. Slice the bell peppers and red onion into thin strips. Remove the seeds and stems from the poblano peppers, then slice them into strips.

  2. 2

    Season the Vegetables

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the sweet potatoes, bell peppers, red onion, and poblano peppers. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Toss to coat the vegetables evenly.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Char the Vegetables

    Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the seasoned vegetable mixture. Cook for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally until the sweet potatoes are tender and slightly charred.

  2. 4

    Melt the Cheese

    In the last few minutes of cooking, sprinkle the mexi-cheese blend over the charred vegetables. Cover the grill or pan with a lid to allow the cheese to melt, about 2-3 minutes.

Serving

  1. 5

    Prepare the Tortillas

    Warm the tortillas on the grill for about 30 seconds on each side or until pliable.

  2. 6

    Assemble the Fajitas

    To serve, place a generous portion of the charbroiled sweet potato and vegetable mixture onto each tortilla. Top with pico de gallo. Roll up the tortillas to enjoy your Tapatia!
