Cooking Steps
- Quarter jalapeño lengthwise, then core. (TIP: We suggest using gloves when prepping jalapeños!)
- Add corn to an unlined baking sheet, then pat dry with paper towels.
- Add jalapeños next to corn. Drizzle 1 tsp (2 tsp) oil over jalapeños, then spread over both sides. Season with a pinch of salt.
- Broil in the top of the oven, flipping jalapeños and tossing corn halfway through, until dark-brown in spots, 5-6 min.
- When done, transfer jalapeños to a cutting board to cool.
- Meanwhile, thinly slice green onion.
- Add 2 tsp (4 tsp) vinegar, 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) sugar and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil to a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then whisk to combine.
- Add cabbage and green onions to the bowl, then toss to combine. Set aside.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
- When the pan is hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then plant-based protein shreds. Cook, tossing occasionally until cooked through, 6-8 min.**
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Add Tex-Mex paste to the pan. Cook, stirring often, until protein shreds are coated, 1 min.
- While plant-based protein shreds cook, wrap tortillas in paper towels.
- Microwave until tortillas are warm and flexible, 1 min. (TIP: You can skip this step if you don't want to warm tortillas!)
- Roughly chop jalapeños.
- Add jalapeños and corn to the pan with plant-based protein shreds. Cook, stirring often, until mixture is combined, 1 min.
- Remove the pan from heat, then stir in chipotle sauce until combined and warmed through.
- Divide tortillas between plates. Top with coleslaw, cheese and plant-based protein shred filling.
- Dollop sour cream over top.
If you've opted to get plant-based protein shreds, cook and plate them the same way as the recipe instructs you to cook and plate the pork, tossing occasionally until cooked through, 6-8 min.**
