Best 3 Cilantro Beef Tacos Recipes

AUTHENTIC MEXICAN TACOS RECIPE

Steps:

• Heat the oil in your skillet for two minutes over medium-high heat. Add your meat once the oil is hot enough to sizzle.
• Add the ground beef to the skillet and stir as the meat cooks evenly and begins to brown. This process will take between 6-8 minutes. While the meat is browning, use a wooden spoon or potato masher to break the ground beef up into smaller pieces.
• Add the beef broth, tomato paste, cumin, chili powder, oregano, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper to the skillet with the meat.
• Reduce the heat to medium and allow the meat mixture to simmer for about 3-5 minutes until the sauce becomes thick. Stir occasionally. When the sauce is thick, turn off the heat and set the skillet aside.
• Heat your tortillas by putting one tortilla at a time into a hot ungreased skillet or cast-iron comal for 30 seconds on each side.
• For each tortilla, add about 2-3 tablespoons of your taco meat mixture. Top the ground beef mixture with onion, cheese, cilantro, and tomato.
• Add whatever other garnishes you want to your tacos, including sour cream, salsa, pico de gallo, or guacamole. Squeeze the lime juice over your assembled tacos.
• Enjoy!

MEXICAN STREET TACOS

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, combine soy sauce, lime juice, 1 tablespoon canola oil, garlic, chili powder, cumin and oregano. In a gallon size Ziploc bag or large bowl, combine soy sauce mixture and steak; marinate for at least 1 hour up to 4 hours, turning the bag occasionally. Heat remaining 1 tablespoon canola oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add steak and marinade, and cook, stirring often, until steak has browned and marinade has reduced, about 5-6 minutes, or until desired doneness. Serve steak in tortillas, topped with onion, cilantro and lime.

CILANTRO TACOS

Steps:

• Brown ground beef, drain and set aside.
• Sauté onions and bell pepper in a little olive oil until soft.
• Add habanero and garlic and sauté a few minutes more.
• Add beef back to pan along with all remaining ingredients except for the cilantro.
• Sauté beef mixture over med-high heat until almost all of the liquid is gone.
• Remove from heat and toss with cilantro.
• Serve with your favorite taco toppings.
• We prefer the uncooked tortillas from Costco that you heat and cook at home -- they are the best if you haven't had them. Otherwise you can use whatever tortilla or shell that you prefer.
