Tortillas

Meat Filling

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Meat Filling

    In a medium skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the ground beef or chicken, breaking it apart with a spatula. Cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Stir in garlic powder, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until spices are well incorporated and meat is fully cooked. Remove from heat.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Tortillas

    In a separate skillet, warm the corn tortillas over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side until soft and pliable. Keep them warm in a clean kitchen towel.

Assembly

  1. 3

    Assemble the Tacos

    Place a warm tortilla on a plate. Spoon about 1/3 cup of the meat filling onto the center of the tortilla. Top with a few tablespoons of chopped onions and cilantro. Drizzle with house-made salsa. Fold the tortilla in half to enclose the filling.

  2. 4

    Repeat

    Repeat the assembly process for the remaining tortillas until all are filled. Serve immediately.
