Method

Prepare the Taco Filling

Cook the Protein

In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken (or beef or tongue) and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Add taco seasoning and cook for an additional 2 minutes until well combined.

Warm Tortillas

In another pan, warm the corn tortillas over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side, or until they are pliable.

Prepare the Rice

Cook the Rice

In a pot, combine the white rice, water, and salt. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 18-20 minutes, or until the rice is cooked and the water is absorbed.

Prepare the Beans

Heat the Beans

In a saucepan, combine the canned black beans, cumin, garlic powder, and salt. Heat over medium heat until warmed through, about 5 minutes.

Assemble the Taco

Build the Taco

Take a warm tortilla, fill it with the cooked protein, a scoop of rice, and a scoop of beans. Top with chopped cilantro, chopped onion, and a squeeze of lime.
