How to Make Taco Skewers
Start by marinating the peppers in adobo sauce, garlic, lime juice, vegetable oil, salt and pepper. Marinating allows the meat to absorb flavors, resulting in a more complex, rounded flavor. It also helps tenderize the meat, making it more juicy and juicy when grilled.
Once marinated, alternate meat and vegetables on skewers. Remember to leave a little space around each skewer to ensure it cooks evenly and thoroughly. If your skewers are made of wood such as bamboo, soaking them in cold water for 10 minutes before using is the secret to preventing them from burning on the grill.
Next, you’ll remove the skewers from the grill and add the tortillas, one at a time. They take just seconds per side to prepare grilled meats and vegetables. Garnish with fresh cilantro, cotija cheese, a dollop of fat and a final squeeze of lime juice for a delicious kick.
