Goat Birria Tacos With Cucumber Pico De Gallo Recipes

Steps:

• Rub goat leg with ⅓ cup Diamond Crystal or 3 Tbsp. Morton kosher salt, working into flesh and fat. Wrap tightly in parchment or wax paper and chill at least 3 hours and up to 3 days.
• Place a rack in lower third of oven; preheat to 350°F. Evenly scatter onion, garlic, guajillo chiles, ancho chile, chiles de árbol, ginger, cloves, tomatoes, peppercorns, oregano, and cumin across a large roasting pan and place a roasting rack on top. Unwrap goat leg and set on rack. Pour 4 cups water into pan and cover tightly with foil. Bake until meat is pulling away from the bone and shreds easily with a fork, 4½-5 hours.
• Let leg sit (still covered) until cool enough to handle (about 1 hour). Shred meat into small pieces and place in a large bowl; discard bones. Remove ginger from pan; discard. Working in batches if needed, purée liquid and aromatics left in pan in a blender until smooth. Pour half of consomé over meat and mix to coat. Taste and season with more salt if needed. Cover and set aside. Pour remaining consomé into a medium bowl and set aside for serving.
• Do Ahead: Meat can be prepared 3 days ahead. Chill meat and consomé.
• Toss cucumbers, onion, lime juice, basil, and salt in a medium bowl. Add 1-4 chiles, depending on their heat and how spicy you like things, and let sit 10 minutes.
• Top warm tortillas with meat, then salsa. Serve with consomé for dipping.

Steps:

• Set up your grill and heat up your coals.
• When coals are almost ready, toss mushrooms caps in oil and garlic. Set stand for a few minutes. Place mushroom slices onto grill. Cook for about 3 to 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine the ingredients for the Pico de Gallo. Season with salt and let stand for a few minutes.
• Squeeze lime over the mushroom slices and then sprinkle with some salt. Flip and cook for another 1 to 2 minutes and squeeze more lime and salt over slices.
• Heat tortillas on open section of grill while mushrooms finish up, about 1 to 2 minutes.
• Remove tortillas from the grill. To assemble, place a few slices of the mushrooms on a tortilla, top with Pico de Gallo and sliced radishes, and serve immediately.
