Cooking Steps

Start corn
1
  • Husk corn, then halve crosswise.
  • Layer two 24x12-inch pieces of foil. Place corn on one side of the foil. Drizzle with 1 tsp (2 tsp) oil and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) water. Season with salt and pepper. Flip to coat. Fold foil in half over corn and pinch firmly to seal pouch. (NOTE: For 4 ppl, make 2 pouches, using 2 sheets of foil per pouch.)
  • Place pouch on top rack of oven. Roast until tender, 24-28 min. When done, remove from oven and keep wrapped.
Cook rice and start prep
2
  • Add 1 1/4 cups (2 1/2 cups) water, 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter and 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) salt to a medium pot. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat.
  • Once boiling, add rice, then reduce heat to low. Cover and cook until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, 12-14 min.
  • Remove from heat. Set aside, still covered.
  • While rice cooks, zest lime, then cut into wedges.
  • Core, then cut peppers into 1/8-inch strips.
Finish prep
3
  • Peel, then cut onion into 1/4-inch slices.
  • Roughly chop cilantro.
  • Add sour cream and lime zest to a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Stir to mix.
  • Using a strainer, drain and rinse shrimp, then pat dry with paper towels.
  • Add shrimp, Tex-Mex Paste Paste and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil to one half of a parchment-lined baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat.
Prep and sear chicken
4
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
  • While pan heats, pat chicken dry with paper towels. Season with salt and pepper.
  • When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then chicken. Sear until golden-brown, 2-3 min per side. (NOTE: Chicken will finish cooking in step 5 .)
  • Remove from heat and transfer chicken to other half of baking sheet. Spread 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) chipotle sauce over chicken.
Cook chicken and shrimp
5
  • Roast in the middle of the oven, until chicken is cooked and shrimp just turn pink, 5-8 min.** 
  • Reheat pan over medium. Add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, peppers, onions and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) water. Season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring often, until liquid evaporates and veggies are tender-crisp, 4-6 min.
  • Wrap tortillas in foil, then place in the top of the oven until warm, 4-5 min. (TIP: Skip this step if you don't want to warm the tortillas!)
Finish and serve
6
  • Fluff rice with fork. Stir in half the cilantro.
  • Unwrap corn. Spread some of the lime crema over top. Sprinkle some feta over top. 
  • Thinly slice chicken.
  • Divide rice, corn, chicken, shrimp and tortillas between plates.
  • Sprinkle remaining cilantro over chicken and shrimp.
  • Serve with sauteed veggies, remaining lime crema, remaining chipotle sauce and remaining feta.
  • Squeeze a lime wedge over top, if desired.
