INGREDIENTS 

    2 bell peppers, each cut into 8 pieces
    2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
    2 tablespoons olive oil kosher salt and black pepper
    1 small onion, chopped
    1 pound ground beef chuck
    1 cup frozen corn
    2 teaspoons ground ancho chili powder or standard chili powder
    8 corn tortillas, warmed cut-up avocado, grated Cheddar, salsa, fresh cilantro, and lime wedges, for serving 


 DIRECTIONS 
1    Heat oven to 450° F. On a rimmed baking sheet, toss the bell peppers and garlic with 1 tablespoon of the oil and ¼ teaspoon each salt and black pepper. Roast until tender, 12 to 14 minutes.
2    Meanwhile, heat the remaining tablespoon of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and ½ teaspoon salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until beginning to brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the beef, corn, and chili powder and cook, stirring occasionally, until the beef is browned, 6 to 8 minutes more.
3    Divide the beef mixture among the tortillas and top with the avocado, Cheddar, salsa, and cilantro. Serve with the bell peppers and lime wedges.
