Taco Ingredients

Method

Taco Preparation Directions

  1. 1

    Cook the Meat

    Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef or chicken and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Ensure to break the meat up into small pieces while cooking.

  2. 2

    Add Seasoning

    Once the meat is fully cooked, drain any excess fat if necessary. Stir in the taco seasoning, adding a splash of water if needed. Cook for an additional 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

  3. 3

    Warm the Tortillas

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

  4. 4

    Assemble the Tacos

    Place a generous portion of the cooked meat on each tortilla. Top with shredded lettuce, chopped tomatoes, and shredded cheese. Add a dollop of sour cream on top.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the assembled tacos immediately while warm, with optional sides of rice and beans.
