Chalupas Recipe

Chalupa Preparation Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Meat

   In a skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef or shredded chicken. Stir in the taco seasoning and cook until the meat is cooked through. If using chicken, make sure it's shredded and heated thoroughly.

2. 2

   Make the Corn Shells

   In a separate skillet, heat olive oil to 350°F (175°C). Fry each corn tortilla until crispy and golden brown on each side. Remove and drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.

3. 3

   Assemble the Chalupas

   Spread a layer of refried beans on each crispy tortilla shell. Top with the cooked meat, followed by shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, shredded cheese, and a dollop of sour cream.

4. 4

   Serve

   Serve the chalupas immediately while the shells are still crispy. Enjoy with your favorite salsa or hot sauce!
