Taco Ingredients

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Meat

    In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Season the meat with salt and pepper, then cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes depending on the type of meat. Remove from heat and let it rest.

  2. 2

    Pickle the Onions

    Thinly slice the red onion and place it in a bowl. Pour red wine vinegar over the onions, mix, and let sit for at least 15 minutes.

  3. 3

    Make the Avocado Sauce

    In a blender, combine avocado, lime juice, salt, and a little water. Blend until smooth. Adjust seasoning as necessary.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Tacos

    Warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet for about 30 seconds on each side. Layer the tortillas with cooked meat, pickled onions, fresh cilantro, and drizzle with avocado sauce.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the tacos immediately with additional lime wedges on the side, if desired.
