South Texas Vegetable Tacos with Goat Cheese

South Texas Vegetable Tacos with Goat Cheese Recipe

Serve with black beans and rice, if desired. If you have leftover vegetables, they’re delicious scrambled with an egg or two (and served in a tortilla, of course) the following day.

Ingredients
2 large poblano chiles
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large red onion, slivered
4 small zucchini, cut into half moons (about 3 cups)
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup fresh corn kernels
2 teaspoons dried oregano
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
Coarsely ground black pepper
8 ounces goat cheese
8 fresh corn tortillas

Instructions
1. Cut chiles in half lengthwise. Place on a foil-lined baking sheet; broil 3 inches from heat 8 minutes or until blackened and charred. Place in a heavy zip-top plastic bag; seal. Let stand 15 minutes. Peel and discard skins and seeds. Chop.
2. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion, zucchini and salt; sauté 7 minutes or until lightly browned. Add corn; cook 2 minutes. Add oregano, cilantro, lime juice and chiles; cook, stirring, until thoroughly heated. Season with black pepper.
3. Heat tortillas one at a time in a dry cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Spread each with 2 tablespoons goat cheese, top with vegetable mixture and serve immediately. Serves 4.
