Queso Panela Tacos with Zucchini & Sweet Corn

Serves 4

Panela is semisoft Mexican cheese that’s often served crumbed over salads. But don’t limit its subtly sweet, milky goodness to a garnish—crispy, gooey grilled panela is the stuff that taco dreams are made of. After grilling, you can nestle the cheese slices in a pool of Tomatillo Salsa (page 151) that’s easy to assemble beforehand (or a day in advance), or serve them simply in warm corn tortillas with a mixture of charred zucchini, sweet corn, sautéed kale, spinach, or grilled mushrooms. You can also serve grilled panela ‘fajita style’ with a sizzling pile of grilled peppers and onions.

Recipe

Prepare a charcoal grill for two-zone cooking and build a medium-high fire, or heat a gas grill to high. Carefully wipe the preheated grates with a lightly oiled paper towel. Using a grill brush, scrape the grill grates clean, then carefully wipe with a lightly oiled towel again.

Grill the squash and corn over direct heat, turning as needed for even cooking, until lightly charred on all sides, 5 to 6 minutes. Set aside to cool.

Brush the panela slices with olive oil and grill until charred and browned, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Dice the grilled squash and transfer to a bowl. Trim the corn kernels from cob and add to the squash, along with the cilantro, oregano, lime juice, and a drizzle of olive oil. Stir to combine and season with salt and more lime juice as desired.

Grill the tortillas over direct heat until lightly charred, about 30 seconds per side. Keep warm in a basket or wrapped in a kitchen towel.

Spread a layer of the salsa on the bottom of a shallow dish or plate. Nestle slices of grilled panela in the salsa. Serve immediately with the squash-corn mixture and charred tortillas on the side.
