Ingredients
  

  • 2.5 cups frozen yellow corn
  • 2 tbsp water
  • cup vegan mayo
  • ½ tsp chili powder
  • 1 tbsp fresh lime juice
  • ½ tsp kosher salt I use Morton's
  • ½ cup vegan Parmesan I use VioLife
  • 20 oz frozen vegan chicken, not breaded about 2 bags
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp taco seasoning
  • 1 tbsp water

For serving

  • 12 medium flour tortillas
  • 2 avocados chopped
  • 1 cup fresh cilantro chopped

Instructions
 

  • Start by thawing the corn by placing the frozen corn and water to a large pan with a lid. Steam for 3-5 minutes or until warmed through. Drain any excess water and allow it to cool slightly. 
  • While the corn steams, make the sauce by combining the vegan mayo, vegan parmesan, lime juice, chili powder, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Stir to combine and then add the slightly cooled corn. Toss well to coat and set aside at room temperature for now. 
  • Next, return the pan to the stove and add the olive oil. Set the pan to medium-high heat and once warm, add the frozen vegan chicken and taco seasoning. Cook for 2-3 minutes then add the water and cook until warmed through, about 5 minutes.
  • In the meantime, warm up the tortillas in a non-stick pan or in the microwave and cover with a clean kitchen towel to keep warm.
  • To assemble the tacos, add the warm vegan chicken and street corn onto each tortilla. Top with avocado, cilantro and an extra squeeze of lime juice if desired. Enjoy!
