Sheet Pan Steak and Chipotle Corn Tacos are a flavorful, hassle-free dinner where tender steak is roasted alongside sweet corn and smoky chipotle spices. Topped with fresh avocado, feta, and cilantro, these tacos are perfect for a quick, satisfying meal.

Ingredients

For the Steak and Chipotle Corn:

1 1/2 pounds flank or skirt steak

1 onion, sliced

1 tablespoon garlic powder

1 tablespoon chili powder

2 teaspoons chipotle chili powder

2 teaspoons smoked paprika

2 teaspoons cumin

2 teaspoons dried oregano

1 teaspoon salt

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 cups corn kernels

Warmed corn or flour tortillas

Avocado, feta, and cilantro, for serving

For the Chipotle Sauce:

6 tablespoons salted butter

1 chipotle chile in adobo, chopped

1/3 cup hot sauce

2 tablespoons lime juice

1 teaspoon seasoned salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  2. Prepare the steak: In a small bowl, combine garlic powder, chili powder, chipotle chili powder, smoked paprika, cumin, oregano, and salt. Rub the steak with olive oil and season generously with the spice mixture. Let marinate for 10 minutes.
  3. Prepare the corn and onion: Toss the sliced onion and corn kernels with olive oil, salt, and pepper on the sheet pan. Spread evenly across the pan.
  4. Roast the steak and corn: Place the seasoned steak on the sheet pan with the vegetables. Roast for 12-15 minutes, or until the steak reaches your desired doneness. Let the steak rest for a few minutes after removing it from the oven.
  5. Make the chipotle sauce: In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped chipotle chile and cook for 1-2 minutes. Stir in hot sauce, lime juice, and seasoned salt. Simmer until the sauce thickens slightly, then remove from heat.
  6. Slice the steak: After resting, slice the steak thinly against the grain.
  7. Assemble the tacos: Warm the tortillas, then layer the sliced steak, roasted corn and onion, and drizzle with chipotle sauce. Top with sliced avocado, crumbled feta, and fresh cilantro.

Notes

For more heat, increase the chipotle chili powder or add extra hot sauce to the chipotle sauce.

Vegetarian? Replace the steak with grilled portobello mushrooms or roasted cauliflower.

Try using cotija cheese or queso fresco instead of feta for a different cheese flavor.

If you don’t have fresh corn, you can use frozen corn—just thaw and drain before using.
