You’ll whip up crisp, cheesy corn fritters made with tempura batter, then nestle them in soft, warm flour tortillas for a flavorful new twist on tacos. Top your corn fritter tacos with smoky red pepper crema, juicy pico de gallo, chopped fresh cilantro, and sliced scallions, then brighten it all up with a squeeze of lime juice just before serving.

• Wash and dry produce. • Drain and rinse corn. Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens. Roughly chop cilantro. Quarter lime.

• In a medium bowl, whisk together tempura batter mix, Fajita Spice Blend, stock concentrate, 1/3 cup cold water, ½ tsp sugar, and a pinch of salt and pepper (2⁄3 cup cold water and 1 tsp sugar for 4 servings). • Stir in corn, scallion whites, and Mexican cheese blend. TIP: Batter should be thick but not dry; add a splash of water if needed.
Open package of chicken and drain off any excess liquid or rinse shrimp under cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Heat a large drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken or shrimp; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until cooked through, 4-6 minutes. Turn off heat; transfer to a plate. Wipe out pan.

• Heat a 1/3-inch layer of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Once oil is hot enough that a drop of batter sizzles, carefully add 1½-TBSP scoops of batter to pan; press down lightly with a spoon. (For 4 servings, you may need to work in batches.) Cook until golden brown and crispy, 3-4 minutes per side. TIP: If the fritters start to brown too quickly or oil splatters, lower the heat. • Transfer fritters to a paper-towel-lined plate. Season with a pinch of salt. • Once cool enough to handle, cut fritters in half.
Use pan used for chicken or shrimp here.

• Wrap tortillas in damp paper towels and microwave until warm and pliable, 30-60 seconds.

• Evenly fill tortillas with red pepper crema, fritters, pico de gallo (draining first), and as much hot sauce as you like; garnish with cilantro and scallion greens.
Add chicken or shrimp to tortillas along with fritters.

• Divide tacos between plates; serve with a squeeze of lime juice and any remaining lime wedges on the side.
Chicken is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 165°.
Kind of a pain to make but very tasty. Very skimpy with the red pepper crema - should have included 2 packets at least.
Amazing. I added some taco beef and black beans and fresh pepper jack cheese and they were breathtakingly good. I want these tacos every Tuesday for the rest of my life.
Tasted AMAZING. Loved the crunchy corn fritters! Will definitely order again!
Very fresh, family loved it, really like the cilantro, good with or without the tortillas.
Really enjoyed! Thought it was the best meal from Hello Fresh that we've had.
Love this idea for a vegetarian recipe. Got the chicken for my husband.
Tortillas/taco was unnecessary, would have preferred the fritters with something else. The pico was good. Also canned corn is a turnoff.
Very putzy and time consuming to make; tasty, but not worth it.
The frying instructions were pretty vague. One of the hardest recipes I've done.
Honestly not worth the time it takes and the fritters weren't nearly crispy enough.
