  • Total Time: 25 minutes
  • Yield: 6 tacos

Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked beef brisket, chopped or shredded
  • 6 small corn tortillas
  • 1 cup roasted corn kernels
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons sour cream
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder or smoked paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt, or to taste
  • 1/3 cup crumbled cotija or feta cheese
  • 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped

Instructions

  1. Heat chopped or shredded brisket in a skillet over medium heat until warmed through and slightly crispy on the edges.
  2. In a bowl, mix roasted corn, mayonnaise, sour cream, lime juice, chili powder, garlic powder, and salt until well combined to make the street corn topping.
  3. Warm corn tortillas in a dry skillet or over a flame until soft and lightly charred.
  4. Fill each tortilla with warm brisket, then top with the street corn mixture.
  5. Finish each taco with crumbled cheese and chopped cilantro. Serve warm.

Notes

  • Add diced jalapeños or cayenne for extra heat.
  • Use less mayo and more sour cream for a lighter option.
  • Top with sliced avocado or shredded lettuce for added texture.
  • Store brisket and street corn separately for best leftovers.
  • Reheat brisket before assembling to keep tortillas from getting soggy.
