Tacos

Method

Tacos

1

Prepare the Beef Filling

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

2

Add Vegetables and Seasonings

Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the onion becomes translucent. Stir in the chili powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper, ensuring the beef is well coated with spices.

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 they are pliable.

4

Assemble the Tacos

Place a portion of the beef filling onto each warm tortilla. Top with shredded lettuce, chopped tomatoes, sour cream, shredded cheese, and a sprinkle of fresh cilantro.

5

Serve

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