Provided by Andrew Knowlton

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 red onion, quartered
2 red bell peppers, halved lengthwise, seeds removed
1 bunch scallions
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
1/3 cup fresh lime juice
1 1/2 pounds kielbasa sausage, halved lengthwise
8 corn or flour tortillas
1/2 bunch cilantro
Hot sauce and lime wedges (for serving)

Steps:

  • Prepare a grill for medium-high heat. Toss onion, bell peppers, and scallions with oil on a rimmed baking sheet; season with salt and black pepper. Grill vegetables until lightly charred and tender, about 2 minutes for scallions and 10 minutes for onion and bell peppers. Transfer to a cutting board as they are done; let cool.
  • Slice onion into 1" wedges; place in a medium bowl and toss with lime juice. Remove skins from bell peppers, then cut into bite-size pieces; place in a small bowl. Place scallions on a platter.
  • Grill sausage, turning halfway through, until lightly charred and warmed through, about 5 minutes. Transfer to platter with scallions.
  • Lightly char tortillas and serve warm with kielbasa, scallions, onion, bell peppers, cilantro, hot sauce, and lime wedges for squeezing over.

Tips:

  • To enhance the flavor of your smoked sausage tacos, use high-quality smoked sausage. Look for one with a good smoke ring and a firm texture.
  • When cooking the sausage, be careful not to overcook it. Otherwise, it will become dry and tough.
  • To make your tacos extra flavorful, marinate the sausage before cooking. There are many different marinades you can use, so experiment to find one that you like.
  • Use a variety of toppings on your tacos to create a unique and delicious flavor combination. Some popular toppings include shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, chopped onions, sour cream, guacamole, and salsa.
  • Serve your tacos with a side of rice or beans to make a complete meal.
