Method
Preparing the Beef
Cook the Beef
In a skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef. Cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula, about 5-7 minutes.
Season the Beef
Once the beef is browned, drain any excess fat. Add taco seasoning and water. Stir to combine.
Simmer
Reduce heat to low and allow the mixture to simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally until the sauce thickens.
Assembling the Tacos
Prepare Taco Shells
While the beef is simmering, prepare the taco shells according to package instructions. You can warm them in the oven or microwave.
Fill the Taco Shells
Once the taco shells are ready, spoon the seasoned beef mixture into each shell, filling them generously.
Add Toppings
Top each taco with shredded cheddar cheese, shredded lettuce, and a drizzle of house sauce.
Serve
Serve the tacos immediately while they're warm, with any additional toppings on the side.
