Taco Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Filling

    In a skillet over medium heat, add the cooked chicken or beef. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir until heated through.

  2. 2

    Assemble the Tacos

    Place one flour tortilla on a flat surface. Sprinkle shredded cheese in the center, followed by the cooked chicken or beef. Roll the tortilla tightly to enclose the filling. Repeat with the second tortilla.

  3. 3

    Cook the Tacos

    In a clean skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Place the rolled tortillas seam side down in the skillet and cook until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes on each side.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Fries

    While the tacos are cooking, prepare the shoe string fries according to package instructions or fry fresh potatoes until crispy.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Cut the tacos in half if desired and serve alongside shoe string fries. Add any optional toppings to the tacos before serving.
