Taco Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Meat

    If using chicken, steak, or pastor, season the meat with salt, pepper, and any additional spices of your choice. Grill or pan-cook over medium-high heat until fully cooked (approximately 7-10 minutes for chicken, 5-7 minutes for steak, and 6-8 minutes for pastor). For veggie tacos, sauté your choice of vegetables (e.g., bell peppers, mushrooms, zucchini) in a bit of olive oil until tender.

  2. 2

    Chop the Vegetables

    Finely dice the onion. Rinse and chop the fresh cilantro. Thinly slice the radishes. Cut the limes into wedges.

  3. 3

    Warm the Tortillas

    Heat the corn tortillas on a skillet or griddle over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side until warm and slightly charred.

Assembling the Tacos

  1. 4

    Build the Tacos

    Place a warm tortilla on a plate. Add a generous portion of your cooked meat or veggies to the center of the tortilla.

  2. 5

    Add Toppings

    Top with diced onion, chopped cilantro, and sliced radish. Squeeze lime juice over the top to taste.

  3. 6

    Serve with Salsas

    Serve the tacos with salsa roja and salsa verde on the side for dipping. Enjoy!
