Recipe by Robin Bashinsky The recipe title here is a playful pun, taking its cues from the pronunciation of the star ingredient. Mushrooms and chiles play surprisingly well together, and this peppy concoction highlights the maitake's robust, roast chicke

Ingredients

1 serrano chile, halved lengthwise
2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
12 ounces maitake mushrooms, coarsely chopped (about 6 cups)
3 green onions, thinly sliced
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 cup organic vegetable broth
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, divided
1/8 teaspoon ground red pepper
2/3 cup canned unsalted pinto beans, rinsed and drained
1 cup fresh corn kernels
1/2 poblano chile, seeded and julienned (about 1/2 cup)
8 (6-inch) corn tortillas
1 cup thinly sliced napa (Chinese) cabbage
3 ounces queso fresco, crumbled (about 3/4 cup)
8 teaspoons Mexican hot sauce (such as Valentina)
8 lime wedges

Instructions

Remove and discard seeds and membranes from half of serrano. Finely chop both chile halves.
Heat a large, heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon oil to pan; swirl to coat. Add mushrooms; sauté 4 to 5 minutes or until mushrooms are browned, stirring occasionally. Add serrano, green onions, and garlic; sauté 30 seconds. Add broth, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and red pepper; reduce heat, and cook 3 minutes or until mushrooms are tender. Stir in beans. Remove mushroom mixture from pan; wipe pan clean with a paper towel.
Increase heat to high. Add remaining 1 tablespoon oil to pan; swirl to coat. Add corn and poblano; sauté 2 minutes or until slightly softened. Stir in remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt.
Heat tortillas according to package directions.
Place 1/3 cup mushroom mixture in each tortilla. Divide corn mixture evenly among tacos. Top each taco with 2 tablespoons cabbage, 1 1/2 tablespoons cheese, and 1 teaspoon hot sauce. Serve with lime wedges.
