Method
Prepare the Protein Filling
For Ground Beef
In a skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef until fully cooked, about 7-10 minutes. Drain excess fat.
For Chicken
In the same skillet, cook diced chicken breast over medium heat until no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes. Season with taco seasoning.
Prepare the Taco Seasoning
In a small bowl, mix together chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
Warm the Tortillas
In a dry skillet, warm each corn tortilla for about 30 seconds on each side until pliable. Keep them warm in a clean cloth.
Assemble the Tacos
Place a warm tortilla on a plate. Add your choice of protein filling, followed by shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, shredded cheese, and a dollop of sour cream.
Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve with lime wedges on the side.
