Taco Ingredients

Method

Taco Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Beef

    In a large skillet, heat over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula.

  2. 2

    Season the Beef

    Once the beef is browned, drain excess fat if necessary. Stir in the taco seasoning mix and water. Mix well until the beef is coated with seasoning.

  3. 3

    Simmer the Beef

    Reduce heat to low and let the beef mixture simmer for about 5-10 minutes until the sauce thickens and flavors meld.

  4. 4

    Prepare Tortillas

    While the beef is simmering, warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side until pliable.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Tacos

    Take a warm tortilla and spoon a generous amount of the seasoned beef mixture in the center. Top with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, shredded cheese, sour cream, and jalapeños as desired.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve the tacos immediately while warm. Enjoy your delicious homemade beef tacos!
