Taco Filling

Taco Assembly

Method

Prepare Taco Filling

  1. 1

    Cook Ground Beef

    In a skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula as it cooks, about 5-7 minutes.

  2. 2

    Add Seasoning

    Once the beef is browned, drain excess fat. Stir in taco seasoning and water. Cook for an additional 5 minutes until the mixture thickens.

Grill the Tacos

  1. 3

    Warm Tortillas

    Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium heat. Place the corn tortillas on the grill for about 30 seconds on each side until they are warm and slightly charred.

  2. 4

    Assemble Tacos

    Once the tortillas are warmed, spoon the taco filling evenly onto each tortilla. Top with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, shredded cheese, sour cream, and chopped cilantro.

Serve

  1. 5

    Garnish and Serve

    Serve the tacos immediately with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the top.
