Wednesday May 3rd, I decided I wanted to put together a meal for Cinco de Mayo.
Yes, my new favorite thing is to cook dinners for those days/holidays I previously ignored. Saint Patrick’s Day, Cinco de Mayo, even some of those silly miscellaneous days (like National Burger Day, which is on May 28th). Any chance I can get to try new foods and cuisines, or to appreciate another culture, I’m totally game to do so.
The trick for this particular Cinco de Mayo-inspired meal was planning and executing it in a day and a half. Not super hard, but it took some brain power, and thankfully some very accommodating family members who picked up some groceries for me.
The bonus for me is that I have a friend of Mexican heritage, so I did what any resourceful person would – I asked her for ideas of what I should make for Cinco de Mayo. Her response was tostadas and margaritas, because she knows I love tostadas... but I wanted to take this opportunity to branch out this time; I want to do something I haven’t done before. So we came up with some form of steak tacos that would also put my red onions to use, and Mexican rice.
But do you really think I’m one to end there? Nuh uh. Absolutely not.
Let me tell you, the internet is a very helpful place. And sometimes a little too helpful. My browser’s bookmarks (and I’ll admit I use multiple browsers) are packed with recipes I’ve saved for some purpose or another. Sometimes I question why I bother with cookbooks... but then I remember that I’m also a sucker for pretty printed materials.
For this particular occasion, I first took the time to do a bit of research about the day itself. Because really, like most people I’m sure, I didn’t know much about Cinco de Mayo other than its part in Mexican history. Similar to Saint Patrick’s Day, it would seem the typical American uses the fifth of May as an excuse for excessive drinking. Even more so this year because Cinco de Mayo falls on a Friday. Ohhh, lordy. But I, for one, knew that it was more than just a day for Corona and tequila. Not to be confused with Mexico’s Independence Day (which is September 16th), Cinco de Mayo is the celebration of the unexpected defeat over the French Army at the Battle of Puebla in 1862. (x) Funny enough, it is really only a minor holiday in Mexico; it is much more popular here in the United States.

MENÚ DE COMIDA
Tacos 3 Ways –
Carne Asada/Steak with pico de gallo
Shrimp with mango slaw
and Chicken with chipotle lime crema (and pico from the steak)
Elote (Mexican Grilled Corn covered in mayo, chili/cayenne powder, and cotija cheese)
Mexican Rice
CHOOSING THE MENU
Once I started actually searching for recipes, it turns out I want to cook a lot of Mexican food. It’s part of the reason I’m doing tacos three ways; because I didn’t have it in me to choose just one. I’m a big fan of having options, since my family doesn’t always agree with my unorthodox cooking habits; they also have vastly different taste buds (i.e. my mother liked the sweeter taco; my brother preferred the spicier). The fact that it may or may not give us leftovers to feast on for a few days doesn’t hurt either.
I adore seafood, so when I found a recipe for a shrimp taco (and fish too, but I’ll save that for a later date), I absolutely wanted to include it. Even better when it involved mango slaw. You (or at least I) expect Mexican food to be relatively spicy, so the use of a fresh, non-spicy element as a topping is most interesting to me. ONE RECIPE COLLECTED, moving along.
I know that seafood isn’t doesn’t always fly for everyone, especially when it comes to tacos, so I also went for the classics: chicken and steak. I’m starting to realize that I have underappreciated steak as a Mexican food ingredient and I now want to actively fix that, starting with this Cinco de Mayo dish. I naturally didn’t want just plain a steak taco filling (how boring), so I found a recipe for carne asada – which is steak that is marinated and grilled. The typical marinade for asada is called “mojo,” a combination of cilantro, jalapeño, garlic, lime juice, orange juice, vinegar, and olive oil, sometimes even a few other spices. I am fascinated by marinades (and smoking meats), so I was definitely excited to give this a try.
As far as chicken, I have done it a few times before to make it easily this time around. But I came across a recipe online that included a mixture for crema, a flavored Mexican sour cream. This particular chipotle lime crema included sauce from chipotles in adobo, but because I decided to include/use this chicken recipe at the last minute, I didn’t have the opportunity to go to the grocery store again to get said adobo. A lot of my work in the kitchen involves improvising, so it doesn’t surprise me that I’m improvising this time. I substituted tabasco sauce.
Within the last year, I have also developed a great appreciation for corn. More specifically grilled corn with those streaks of char *swoooons* So delicious. As such, I have had my eye on trying elote – grilled corn, Mexican street food style. Grilled in or out of the husk, brushed with mayonnaise, sprinkled with a chili powder and cayenne powder mix, and then sprinkled or rolled in cotija (very similar to grated parmesan)... Anything that takes a regular ol’ corn on the cob above and beyond is on my list of must-tries.
And Mexican rice, an excellent final addition as per my friend’s suggestion, is a very intriguing concoction. The rice gets toasted in olive oil with garlic and jalapeño; a large can of tomatoes gets pureed with onions; the two get combined along with some other ingredients in a symphony of boiling bubbles that will also make you fear for the safety of your hands. But it’s worth it, so worth it. It’s one of those things that, once you make it yourself, you have a greater appreciation when you eat it somewhere else.
So, some firsts for me:
Jalapeños and Serranos. Anybody else intimidated by these little peppers? Because I sure as hell am. It’s kind of like spiders; the smaller they are, the more deadly 😆 But I am the person crazy enough to take a small piece of each as I was mincing them and try them, separately, and straight up. I literally said out loud to myself, “I regret this decision” because my mouth was immediately on fire. But hey, just another day of fearlessness in the kitchen.
Mortar and pestle. Fun fact: I’ve had a mortar and pestle for a while. Mostly, like so many things in my life (*cries*), I have them but they generally go unused until I rediscover them by some divine intervention – like when cooking food for Cinco de Mayo. When I was making the mojo for carne asada (don’t worry, even my Mexican friend didn’t know what mojo was) and it called for a mortar and pestle to mash ingredients into a paste, I was like OKAY I’M DOING IT, I’M CHANGING THE PURPOSE IN WHICH I OWN THIS MORTAR AND PESTLE AND IT IS NOW FOR CULINARY USE. And strangely enough, I think I’m actually excited to use it more in the kitchen. Though I’m also the person that, in the back of my mind, I’m thinking to myself that I’d like a bigger one than the one I have. Anywho... someone please send me recipes or things to make using a mortar, please and thanks.
Making rice on the stovetop. We have a Pampered Chef microwave rice maker that we typically use when we eat rice. That’s all I’ve ever used to make it in my life. Let it be known that on May 5th, I made my first official rice dish on the stove top. And the way Mexican rice is cooked, I definitely thought I was going to hurt myself (i.e. pouring a boiling hot tomato-onion puree into the Dutch oven pot that held the rice. Ayyye-aye-aye; the way that boiled was crazy!) The rice was a hit though. 👍 I just suggest adding extra chicken stock or broth to moisten it up a bit.
The Experience
Here’s the truth: This meal took me about... 4 to 4.5 hours to make. In my defense, I will say that when I’m making something for the first time, I’m always a little slower because I’m trying to get my bearings. Not to mention I was doing this by myself (by choice, of course), doing each dish one at a time rather than multiples at the once, and also trying to clean up as I went along.
The thing is, despite how long it took and the eons of dishes I used (I’m pretty sure I used every major gadget I own in order to make this), the amount of time didn’t bother me. Not a single bit. People will often say to me “See? That’s why I don’t do that, it’s too much work” ... or “Just cut corners and use store bought stuff because it’s faster.” BUT I LOVE DOING IT THIS WAY. No matter the fact that it takes 4 hours to cook and only 5 minutes to eat, it is infinitely more satisfying – at least for me – when it’s done from scratch and/or from fresh. Okay sure, I used a few things from the frozen section of the grocery store (i.e. the ears of corn) or items from a bag/can (bagged coleslaw and canned diced mango) to cut a few corners here and there, but it was still amazingly delicious and didn’t taint the flavors and freshness of the meal one bit.
While all of it was AMAZING (seriously, my mom said so!), my favorite parts by far were the mango slaw and elote. Coleslaw and corn will never be the same for me. I dare say forget butter, always put mayo on your corn on the cob; the Mexicans know what they’re doing.
And my gawwwwd, the love I have for cilantro has deepened so much thanks to these dishes. It’s such a fantastic compliment to the mango and the coleslaw; I could eat it – the slaw and cilantro – forever.
I gave some to my friend, to get it authenticated by someone who knows this type of food well. I had to know if I did right by the Mexicans! 😂
And I did! It wasn’t spicy to her standards (us white people have more sensitive taste buds obviously haha), but she told me that it was the best (or some of the best) Mexican-American cooking she’s had. 🙌 Thanks, lady!
Turns out that I need to make tacos like this more often. Everyone seems to love them! I'm stoked for the next time I make Mexican, and can use all those other recipes I found
