Here's a new favorite to add to your weeknight dinner rotation. Made with canned black beans, a few simple but lively seasonings, and tangy feta cheese, these vegetarian tacos come together in just 20 minutes. A quick turn in a nonstick skillet warms the filling and creates the crispy exterior. The recipe is a Yummly original created by Sher Castellano.

Instructions

1
|
Preheat the oven to 200°F. Place a baking sheet on middle rack while it heats.
2
|
Rinse and drain the black beans. Chop the cilantro and green onions. Cut one lime into wedges and set aside. Squeeze the juice from the remaining lime.
3
|
Transfer the black beans to a medium mixing bowl and add the chopped cilantro, green onions, lime juice, olive oil, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and feta. Stir well to combine.
4
|
Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add about 1 teaspoon of oil and place two tortillas in the skillet. When tortillas are warm, place 1/4 cup of the bean mixture down the center of each. Fold each tortilla over to make a taco (you may have to press gently with a spatula to get the tortillas to stay folded). Cook until golden brown on bottom, 1-2 minutes. Flip the tacos over and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.
5
|
Transfer tacos to the baking sheet in the oven to keep warm.
6
|
Repeat the steps until all 12 tortillas are filled and cooked.
7
|
Transfer the tacos to a platter with the lime wedges and scatter cilantro leaves on top. Serve warm with sour cream and hot sauce, if desired.

Tips & Tricks (5)

  • Bean Blotting Technique 🧻
    Pat your canned black beans completely dry with paper towels before seasoning to ensure maximum crispiness and prevent soggy tacos.
  • Tortilla Crisping Hack 🔥
    Press down gently on corn tortillas with a flat metal turner while cooking to create an even, golden-brown crispy exterior that adds incredible texture.
  • Flavor Layering Strategy 🌶️
    Toast your spices like garlic powder and chili powder in the olive oil for 30 seconds before adding beans to unlock deeper, more complex flavor profiles.
  • Feta Freshness Tip 🧀
    Crumble feta just before serving to maintain its delicate texture and prevent it from becoming too wet or compact.
  • Lime Zest Boost 🍋
    Grate some lime zest into your black bean mixture for an extra layer of bright, citrusy intensity that complements the other flavors.
