Method

Preparation of Meat Filling

  1. 1

    Cook the Ground Beef

    In a skillet over medium heat, add olive oil and allow it to heat for about 1 minute. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Stir occasionally to break up the meat.

  2. 2

    Season the Meat

    Sprinkle ground cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper over the cooked meat. Stir well to combine and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the spices are fragrant.

Tortilla Preparation

  1. 3

    Warm the Tortillas

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

Assembly

  1. 4

    Fill the Tortillas

    Take a warmed tortilla and add a portion of the meat filling in the center. Top with chopped cilantro, diced tomatoes, slices of avocado, and shredded cheese.

  2. 5

    Serve

    Fold the tortilla over the filling, and serve immediately with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the tacos.
