Taco Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Meat

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook your choice of meat until fully cooked through, about 7-10 minutes. Drain off any excess fat.

  2. 2

    Add Green Chiles

    Once the meat is cooked, stir in the green chiles and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until heated through.

  3. 3

    Prepare Tortillas

    While the meat and chiles are cooking, heat the flour tortillas in a separate skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side or until warm and pliable.

Assembly

  1. 4

    Fill the Tacos

    Take a warm tortilla and spoon approximately 1/4 cup of the meat and green chile mixture into the center.

  2. 5

    Add Cheese

    Sprinkle about 2 tablespoons of shredded cheese over the meat mixture.

  3. 6

    Fold and Serve

    Fold the tortilla over the filling to create a taco. Repeat with the remaining tortillas. Serve with your favorite toppings such as salsa, avocado, or sour cream.
