step-by-step

instructions

Cook Along

1 Prepare & roast the carrots

Preheat the oven to 450°F. Wash and dry the fresh produce. Line a sheet pan with foil. Peel the carrots; quarter lengthwise, then cut crosswise into 2-inch pieces. Transfer to the sheet pan. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt, pepper, and up to half the spice blend; toss to coat. Arrange in an even layer. Roast 15 to 17 minutes, or until browned and tender when pierced with a fork. Remove from the oven.

2 Prepare the remaining ingredients

Meanwhile, thinly slice the scallions, separating the white bottoms and hollow green tops. Cut off and discard the stem of the pepper. Halve lengthwise; remove the ribs and seeds, then thinly slice crosswise. Thoroughly wash your hands immediately after handling. In a bowl, combine the mayonnaise and as much of the chile paste as you'd like, depending on how spicy you'd like the dish to be. Season with salt and pepper.

3 Cook the chicken & pepper

Pat the chicken dry with paper towels; place in a bowl. Season with salt, pepper, and the remaining spice blend; toss to coat. In a medium pan (nonstick, if you have one), heat a drizzle of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the seasoned chicken and sliced pepper in an even layer. Cook, without stirring, 3 to 4 minutes, or until lightly browned. Add the sliced white bottoms of the scallions; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, 3 to 4 minutes, or until the pepper is softened and the chicken is browned and cooked through. Turn off the heat. Carefully stir in the vinegar until combined.

4 Make the cheesy tortillas

Meanwhile, place the tortillas on a separate sheet pan. Evenly top with the cheddar and monterey jack. Toast in the oven 3 to 4 minutes, or until the cheese is melted. Remove from the oven.

5 Assemble the tacos & serve your dish

Assemble the tacos using the cheesy tortillas and cooked chicken and pepper. Serve the tacos with the roasted carrots and chipotle mayo on the side. Garnish with the sliced green tops of the scallions. Enjoy!
