Taco Preparation

1. Cook the Meat

In a skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef or chicken. Cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula as it cooks. Drain excess fat if necessary.

2. Add Aromatics

Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet. Sauté until the onion is translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

3. Season the Filling

Sprinkle the cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper over the meat mixture. Stir well to combine and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.

4. Heat the Tortillas

In a separate skillet or on a griddle, warm the corn tortillas until soft and pliable, about 30 seconds on each side.

5. Assemble the Tacos

Fill each tortilla with the meat mixture, then top with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, shredded cheese, sour cream, and salsa as desired.

6. Serve

Serve the tacos immediately while warm, with extra toppings on the side.
