Steps:
- Stir together the chipotle chile powder, garlic powder, salt, and cracked black pepper in a shallow bowl. Brush the tilapia fillets with the canola oil, and press into the spice mixture to coat, and set aside. Make the salsa by stirring together the mango, jalapeno, red onion, 1 clove garlic, cilantro, and lime juice in a separate bowl, and set aside. Make the aioli by stirring together the chipotle puree, 1 clove garlic, and mayonnaise in a small bowl, and set aside.
- Bring the black beans and 2 cloves of garlic to a simmer in a saucepan with a pinch of salt. Cover, and cook over low heat for 20 minutes. Meanwhile, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat, and cook the tilapia until opaque in the center, and crispy on both sides, about 7 minutes. Heat the tortillas in a skillet over medium heat, and keep warm.
- To serve, place the tortillas on a plate, spoon on some Spanish rice and black beans. Top with some of the coleslaw mix, hot tilapia, and a spoonful of the mango-cilantro salsa. Top with a dollop of chipotle aioli to serve.

Tips:
- Choose the right cut of beef: For tacos, you want a cut of beef that is flavorful and tender. Some good options include flank steak, skirt steak, or chuck roast.
- Marinate the beef: Marinating the beef helps to tenderize it and add flavor. You can use a variety of marinades, but a simple one made with olive oil, lime juice, garlic, and cumin is a good place to start.
- Cook the beef properly: Be careful not to overcook the beef, as this will make it tough. For flank steak or skirt steak, cook over high heat for a few minutes per side. For chuck roast, cook in a slow cooker or braise in the oven until it is fall-apart tender.
- Make a flavorful salsa: The salsa is an important part of any taco, so make sure to use fresh, flavorful ingredients. A good mango salsa recipe is included in the article.
- Assemble the tacos: When assembling the tacos, start with a warm tortilla. Add the beef, salsa, and any other desired toppings, such as lettuce, tomato, onion, or cheese. Serve immediately.
Conclusion:
Beef tacos are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With a little planning and preparation, you can make beef tacos that are sure to impress your family and friends. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal, give beef tacos a try.
