Prepare the Tacos
Warm the taco shells according to package instructions (if using soft shells, wrap them in foil and warm them in the oven).
Assemble the Tacos
In each taco shell, add a layer of seasoned meat, followed by shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, shredded cheese, and a dollop of sour cream.
Add Toppings
Top with sliced jalapeños and chopped cilantro as desired.
