Method

Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Cook the Rice

    In a pot, cook rice according to package instructions. Once cooked, set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Chicken

    Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper. In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked. Remove from skillet and shred the chicken.

  3. 3

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Sauté chopped bell pepper and onion until soft, about 5 minutes. Mix in the shredded chicken and sauté for an additional 2 minutes.

  4. 4

    Make the Poblano Tomato Sauce

    Blend roasted poblano peppers and tomatoes in a food processor until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  5. 5

    Prepare the Street Corn Relish

    In a bowl, combine corn, chopped cilantro, lime juice, salt, and pepper. Mix well to combine.

  6. 6

    Assemble the Tacos

    Warm the tortillas in a skillet or microwave. On each tortilla, layer rice, sautéed chicken and vegetables, a dollop of poblano tomato sauce, street corn relish, and sprinkle with queso fresco.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Serve the tacos warm with additional lime wedges on the side.
