Method

Taco Filling

1

Cook the Chorizo

In a skillet over medium heat, crumble and cook the chorizo until browned. Add taco seasoning and water, stirring to combine. Simmer for 10 minutes until thickened.

Napa Sundried Tomato Slaw

2

Prepare the Slaw

In a large bowl, combine napa cabbage, sundried tomatoes, and red onion. In a small bowl, whisk together apple cider vinegar, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Pour over the slaw and toss to combine.

Horseradish Sour Cream

3

Make the Sour Cream

In a bowl, mix together sour cream, prepared horseradish, and lemon juice until smooth.

Fried Jalapenos

4

Fry the Jalapenos

In a mixing bowl, combine flour, cornstarch, baking powder, and cold water to form a batter. Heat oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Dip jalapeno slices in batter and fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes. Drain on paper towels.

Taco Assembly

Assemble the Tacos

Warm the corn tortillas in a skillet. Fill each tortilla with the chorizo mixture, top with napa slaw, a dollop of horseradish sour cream, and crispy fried jalapenos. Serve immediately.
