Best Grilled Wild Mushroom And Kale Tacos With Chipotle Salsa Recipes

CHIPOTLE MARINATED KALE AND SMOKY MUSHROOM TACOS

Steps:

• Place the kale leaves on a cutting board and chop them into strips, then place them in a bowl. Add 1 tablespoon of oil, the adobo sauce and chipotle chili powder, tossing well. Use your hands to massage the ingredients into the kale. Set it aside. (and wash your hands! so you don't burn the heck out of your eyeballs.)
• Heat a large skillet over medium-low heat and add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and butter. Stir in the mushrooms, tossing to coat in the butter, then cook until the mushrooms are soft and juicy, about 6 to 8 minutes. Stir in the garlic, cumin, salt and pepper. Stir in the chopped cilantro. Turn off the heat. I also like to crumble a bit of the queso fresco in here now too, but that's your call.
• Assemble the tacos by placing a handful of the marinated kale on a tortilla. Place the avocado slices on top, then some of the mushrooms, the tomatoes, sweet onion, more cilantro and queso fresco. Devour!

MUSHROOM TACOS WITH CHARRED-CORN SALSA

Steps:

• Heat grill to medium-high. In a small bowl, whisk together 5 tablespoons oil, 1 tablespoon lime juice, and 2 teaspoons chipotle sauce; brush mixture onto both sides of mushrooms. Season generously with salt. In a large bowl, stir together lime zest, remaining 1 tablespoon lime juice, and onion; season with salt and pepper. In another small bowl, combine remaining 2 teaspoons chipotle sauce, sour cream, and 1 tablespoon water; season with salt.
• Grill mushrooms, flipping once, until charred in places, 3 to 4 minutes a side; transfer to a plate. Grill corn, turning occasionally, until charred, 6 minutes. Cut kernels off cobs; stir into onion mixture with remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Season with salt and pepper. Grill tortillas, flipping once, 30 seconds. Top tortillas with sourcream mixture, mushrooms, corn salsa, and cilantro; serve.

CHIPOTLE-GRILLED MUSHROOM TACO BAR

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for medium-high heat.
• For the mushrooms: Pulse the orange juice, vegetable oil, cider vinegar, brown sugar, chipotles and adobo sauce and1/2 teaspoon salt in a mini-food processor or blender until smooth and emulsified.
• Put the mushroom caps in 1 or 2 large resealable plastic bags and pour in the marinade. Rub the marinade into the caps, seal the bags and marinate at room temperature while you make the corn salsa, turning the bags over occasionally.
• For the corn salsa: Lightly oil the grill grates. Brush the corn evenly with 2 tablespoons vegetable oil and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Grill, turning occasionally, until the kernels are cooked through and charred in spots, 10 to 15 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly; keep the grill at medium-high heat.
• Whisk the mayonnaise, Parmesan and lime zest and juice in a large bowl until combined. Cut off the corn kernels with a paring knife and stir into the mayonnaise mixture. Mix in the cilantro and 1/4 teaspoon salt and set aside.
• Remove the mushrooms from the marinade, shaking off any excess, and season on both sides. Pour the marinade into a bowl. Put the mushrooms on the grill cap-side down and grill until very charred, rotating them a few degrees to keep one spot from charring too much if necessary, about 4 minutes. Flip, brush with a little marinade and grill until the bottoms are charred and the mushrooms are tender when pierced with the tip of a paring knife, about 4 more minutes. Transfer the mushrooms to a cutting board, slice thickly and transfer to a platter.
• For the taco bar: Serve the mushrooms immediately with the tortillas, corn salsa, Monterey Jack, pico de gallo, radishes, avocados and limes, letting diners build their own tacos.

GRILLED WILD MUSHROOM AND KALE TACOS WITH CHIPOTLE SALSA RECIPE - (4.3/5)

Steps:

• Chipotle Salsa: 1. Preheat the broiler. In a flat pan, brush onion quarters with 1 tsp. of the oil. Broil on a rack about 5 inches from the heat about 8 minutes, turning once, until soft and golden. 2. In a small skillet, heat the remaining oil over medium. Add garlic and sauté until soft and golden, shaking the pan occasionally. 3. In a blender, combine onion, garlic, tomatoes (including juices), chipotle peppers, bay leaf, cumin, basil, oregano, cinnamon, black pepper, and allspice. Puree until smooth. Pour the mixture into a large saucepan and simmer for 30 minutes. Season to taste with salt. Salsa will last for about a week stored in the refrigerator in an airtight container. Tacos: 1. Heat a gas grill or large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. In a large bowl, toss the mushrooms with 2 tbsp. of oil, and grill or sauté them in skillet until browned and just cooked through. Remove mushrooms from heat, cut into slices, season with salt and pepper, and spoon Chipotle Salsa to taste on top. 2. In a large skillet, heat remaining oil over high. Add the kale and cook about 5 minutes or until crisp, turning often. Season to taste with salt and pepper. 3. Spoon mushrooms onto tortillas, garnish with the kale and goat cheese, and serve with some of the remaining salsa on the side.
