Grilled Beef Tacos With Porcini and Morita Chili Pepper
- 1 lb skirt steak
- 4 dried porcini mushrooms
- 12 dried chili, seeded
- 12 teaspoon smoked sea salt
- 2 ears corn
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, plus more for greasing the grill pan
- 6 ounces frozen mushrooms (mixed) or 6 ounces fresh mushrooms, room temperature
- kosher salt
- fresh ground black pepper
- 8 taco shells
- 12 bunch cilantro or 14 head cabbage, for serving
- In a spice grinder, combine dried porcini mushrooms, 1/2 the chilies and smoked salt; pulse until finely ground.
- Pound the meat to a thickness of 1/3 inch, then rub with ground spice mixture; set aside.
- Heat a grill pan over high heat.
- Cut kernels from cob (you should have about 1 1/2 cups).
- Heat oil in a small skillet over medium heat; add thawed or fresh mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 to 8 minutes.
- Season mushrooms with salt and pepper; reduce heat to low to keep warm.
- Lightly grease grill pan and grill meat 2 minutes on each side for medium rare (cook longer, if desired, but take care not to toughen meat).
- Transfer steak to cutting board to rest.
- Reduce heat under gill pan to medium and cook corn 1 or 2 minutes, stirring, so that corn browns but does not burn; transfer to a bowl.
- Turn off heat and warm taco shells on grill.
- Cut skirt steak, against the grain, into 1/2 inch strips.
- To assemble: place a bed of cilantro or cabbage in each taco shell; layer in steak, mushrooms, and corn.
- Serve with your favorite salsa.
