MARINADE
SAUCE
ASSEMBLE
Marinate the mushrooms: In a bowl, toss sliced mushrooms with dark soy sauce, liquid smoke, olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, cumin, and salt. Let them sit for 15 minutes to soak up the flavor.
Make the sauce: In a blender, combine cilantro, vegan mayo, pickled jalapeños, and jalapeño brine. Blend until smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Sauté the mushrooms: Heat 1 tsp oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated mushrooms and cook until deeply golden and crispy around the edges, about 8–10 minutes.
Assemble the tacos: Warm tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave. Spoon in the sautéed mushrooms, drizzle with the creamy sauce, and top with chopped onion, cilantro, and a squeeze of lime.
Serve and enjoy: These are best eaten fresh, while everything’s warm and saucy!
