Ingredients

Taco Shell

Beef Filling

Toppings

Preparation

Preparing Taco Shells

1. Heat the Oil

In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat.

2. Fry the Tortillas

Once the oil is hot, carefully place one corn tortilla in the oil. Fry for about 30 seconds on each side until crispy and golden brown. Remove and drain on paper towels.

3. Shape the Shells

While still warm, gently fold the fried tortilla into a taco shape and hold it until it cools to maintain the shape.

Preparing Beef Filling

4. Cook the Beef

In a skillet over medium heat, add ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula as it cooks for about 5-7 minutes.

5. Add Seasoning

Drain excess fat from the skillet, then add taco seasoning and water. Stir to combine, and let it simmer for 5-10 minutes until the mixture thickens.

Assembling Tacos

6. Fill the Shells

Take a crispy taco shell and fill it with a generous spoonful of the seasoned beef mixture.

7. Add Toppings

Top the beef with shredded lettuce, a sprinkle of cheddar cheese, and a spoonful of salsa.
