Ingredients:

For the Street Corn:
  • 1 (10 oz) bag of Birds Eye® Steamfresh™ Gold and White Corn
  • 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon grated lime zest
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1/8 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons sour cream
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup crumbled queso fresco cheese
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
For the Steak:
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 pound beef flank steak or flat iron steak (1/2 to 3/4-inch thick)
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
To Serve:
  • 8 corn tortillas (6-inch), warmed
  • Lime wedges and additional cilantro (optional)

 

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Street Corn:
    • Preheat the broiler. On a baking sheet, toss the Birds Eye® Steamfresh™ Gold and White Corn with vegetable oil, then broil for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the corn is roasted.
    • In a large bowl, combine the roasted corn, lime zest, lime juice, chili powder, smoked paprika, and salt. Stir in sour cream, mayonnaise, and crumbled queso fresco. Sprinkle with fresh cilantro.
  2. Season the Steak:
    • In a small bowl, mix together chili powder, cumin, salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder.
    • Rub the seasoning mixture evenly over both sides of the steak.
  3. Cook the Steak:
    • Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the steak and cook for 3-4 minutes per side or until the steak reaches your desired doneness (medium-rare to medium is ideal). Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes.
    • Slice the steak thinly against the grain.
  4. Assemble the Tacos:
    • Warm the corn tortillas. For each taco, place a few slices of steak, then top with the street corn mixture. Optionally, garnish with extra cilantro and a lime wedge.
