For the crispy chipotle potatoes:
Gluten-Free, Vegan, Serves 8
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 4 large russet potatoes, peeled and cut into thin matchstick-size strips
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon chipotle powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
For the avocado crema:
- 2 ripe avocados
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves
- Juice of 1 lime
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Water (as needed to thin out the crema)
For assembling:
- 16 gluten-free corn tortillas
- Shredded lettuce
- Diced tomatoes
- Sliced jalapeños
- Diced red onions
- Fresh cilantro leaves
Directions:
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large bowl, toss the potato matchsticks with olive oil, chipotle powder, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt until evenly coated. Spread the seasoned potato matchsticks in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Bake in the oven for 30-35 minutes or until the potatoes are crispy and golden brown.
Flip them halfway through cooking for even browning. While the potatoes are baking, prepare the avocado crema. Combine the avocados, cilantro leaves, lime juice, salt, and pepper in a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth and creamy, adding water to thin out the crema to your desired consistency. Heat the corn tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for a few seconds on each side until warm and pliable.
Spread a dollop of avocado crema on each warm corn tortilla to assemble the tacos. Top with a handful of crispy chipotle potatoes, shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, diced red onions, sliced jalapeños, and fresh cilantro leaves. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and ingredients to make the remaining tacos.
