Method

For the Tacos

1

Prepare the Beef Filling

In a skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef, chopped onion, and minced garlic. Cook until the beef is browned and the onions are translucent, about 7-10 minutes.

2

Season the Beef

Add cumin powder, chili powder, salt, and black pepper to the beef mixture. Stir well and let it cook for another 5 minutes to blend the flavors.

3

Warm the Tortillas

In a separate skillet or on a griddle, warm the corn tortillas over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side until soft and pliable.

4

Assemble the Tacos

Spoon a generous amount of the beef filling onto each tortilla. Top with chopped cilantro and a squeeze of lime juice.

For the Salsa

5

Mix Salsa Ingredients

In a medium bowl, combine diced tomatoes, red onion, minced jalapeño, lime juice, and salt. Stir gently to mix all ingredients.

6

Let Salsa Rest

Allow the salsa to sit for at least 10 minutes to let the flavors meld together before serving.
