Tacos with grilled chipolata sausage and vegetables
Recipe
Making your own tacos? Do it quickly and easily in the Big Green Egg. We use ready-made taco shells for this taco recipe. The filling includes a chipolata sausage, baby corn and green asparagus tips. Grill them on the cast iron grid to give them extra flavour. Then simply fill the taco shells and heat them up for a while in the Big Green Egg. Less effort, great taste!
INGREDIENTS
Taco
- 4 taco shells
Filling
- 4 fresh baby corn
- 1 large tomato
- ½ red onion
- 4 chipolata sausages of 35 g each
- 12 green asparagus tips
- 2 tbsp tapenade of sun-dried tomatoes
- 4 tbsp steamed kidney beans (canned, drained)
- 40 g grated Manchego cheese
- 8 rocket leaves
- Coriander leaves to taste
IN ADVANCE
- Light the charcoal in the Big Green Egg and heat, with the Cast Iron Grid, to a temperature of 200°C. Meanwhile, for the filling, halve the baby corn lengthwise. Cut the tomato into eight thin slices. Peel the red onion and cut into thin half rings.
METHOD
- Place the chipolata sausages, baby corn and green asparagus tips on the grill. Close the lid of the EGG and grill the corn and asparagus tips for about 4 minutes and the sausages for about 6 minutes. Turn them over halfway through the cooking time.
- Meanwhile, brush the inside of the taco shells with the tapenade and prepare a stainless steel taco holder. Remove the sausages, corn and asparagus tips from the EGG.
- Divide the kidney beans, sausages, tomato slices, corn, asparagus tips then onion between the taco shells and sprinkle with the grated Manchego. Place them in the taco holder and put it on the grill. Close the lid of the EGG and heat for about 3 minutes until the cheese is melted.
- Carefully remove the hot taco holder from the EGG and garnish the tacos with the rocket and coriander.
