Fajita Taco Salad Ingredients

Method

Fajita Taco Salad Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tortilla Shells

    Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the flour tortillas in a taco shell mold or shape them in the oven using an upside-down muffin tin. Bake for about 10-12 minutes, or until they are golden and crispy. Remove and let cool.

  2. 2

    Cook the Meat and Vegetables

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the chicken or beef with salt, black pepper, cumin, and chili powder. Add to the skillet and cook for about 5-7 minutes until cooked through. Add the sliced bell pepper and onion, cooking for an additional 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Salad

    In each crispy tortilla shell, layer the cooked meat and vegetable mixture. Add the shredded lettuce, followed by a generous scoop of guacamole, pico de gallo, and a dollop of sour cream on top.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Serve immediately while the tortilla shell is still warm and crispy.
