TACOS AL CARBON WITH AVOCADO SALSA

In the southwest and Mexico, there are little stands serving tasty meat, wrapped in a corn tortilla and topped with salsa. The Taquerias serve the best Tacos Al Carbon. This is a pretty authentic recipe for these tasty little tacos. It is flank steak marinated with all the flavours of Mexico. The avocado salsa is a great side dish by itself, but is excellant as a filling for the tacos. It does need to marinate for 4-6 hours. Don't forget the cerveza with lime!

Chorizo and Sweet Potato Tacos with Avocado Salsa image

Steps:

  • In a large skillet, heat the olive oil until shimmering. Add the chorizo and cook over medium heat, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon, until rendered but not cooked through, about 5 minutes. Add the sweet potato and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the edges just start to soften and browned bits form on the bottom of the skillet, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the broth and simmer over medium-low heat, scraping up the browned bits, until the sweet potatoes are tender and the chorizo is cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and keep warm.
  • Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, gently mix the avocado with the onion, chiles, lime juice, and cilantro; season with salt and pepper.
  • Serve the chorizo and sweet potato in warm corn tortillas, topped with the avocado salsa and crumbled queso fresco cheese.

12 ounces fresh chorizo
1 sweet potato (10 to 12 ounces), peeled and cut into ½-inch dice
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
1 large ripe but firm avocado, peeled, pitted and cut into ¼-inch dice

1 to 2 serrano or jalapeños, stemmed, seeded and minced
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1/2 cup lightly packed cilantro, finely chopped

POTATO-CHORIZO TACOS WITH SIMPLE AVOCADO SALSA

These delicious tacos make a nice, simple supper. I'm lucky that my mom makes her own chorizo, and she always gives me some. She makes this potato-chorizo filling all the time, but this particular recipe is by Rick Bayless (my mom is the type who never bothers with measurements). It's also great on tostadas, in burritos and quesadillas.

Potato-Chorizo Tacos With Simple Avocado Salsa image

Steps:

  • For the filling: In a medium (3 to 4-quart) saucepan, bring about 1 quart of water to a boil. Add the cubed potatoes and heavily salt the water (about 2 teaspoons), Simmer until the potatoes are fully tender, about 10 minutes. Drain.
  • In a large (12-inch) heavy well-seasoned or nonstick skillet or griddle set over medium heat, combine the chorizo and onion; stir regularly, breaking up any clumps of sausage, until the onion is soft and the sausage cooked through, about 10 minutes. If the sausage has rendered more than a light coating of fat over the bottom of the skillet, pour out the excess.
  • Add the potatoes to the skillet and continue to cook over medium heat, stirring regularly, until the potatoes begin to brown, about 8 minutes. As the mixture cooks, mash everything together a little with the back of a spoon or spatula, scraping up any crusty bits of potato, so that it roughly holds together (it'll look a little like hash). Cover and keep warm over the lowest heat.
  • For the salsa: As the filling finishes cooking, make the salsa: In a food processor, combine the tomatillos, garlic and chiles. Pulse the machine until everything is finely chopped. Peel and pit the avocado, add the flesh to the processor and pulse until everything is well blended (the salsa will be the consistency of a light mayonnaise). Scrape the salsa into a serving bowl, taste and season with salt, usually about 1/2 teaspoon.
  • Serving: Scrape the warm chorizo filling into a serving bowl and set on the table along with the avocado salsa and a basket of steaming tortillas.
  • Note: If you are using store-bought tortillas, drizzle a clean kitchen towel with 3 tablespoons water and wrap your cold tortillas in it. Slide the package into a microwaveable plastic bag and fold the top over, but don't seal it. Microwave at 50% power for 4 minutes to create steam in the package. Let stand for 2 or 3 minutes before serving.

FLANK STEAK TACOS WITH MANGO-AVOCADO SALSA

After making steak tacos a ton of different ways from a ton of different recipes, I think I found my favorite. Very flavorful meat and great salsa. No one flavor seems to kill the rest. Serve with lime wedges, your choice of tortillas, and sour cream.
