Number Of Ingredients 2

Vegetable oil
Corn tortillas

Steps:

  • In a heavy-bottomed, straight-sided skillet, heat 1 inch vegetable oil over medium until it registers 350 degrees on a deep-fry thermometer. Add a corn tortilla and fry 15 seconds per side.
  • Fold tortilla in half, pressing one side to bottom of skillet and holding other side up with tongs. Cook until crisp and golden, 15 to 30 seconds. Flip and repeat, pressing other side into oil.
  • Drain on paper towels. Repeat to make as many shells as you like; a good rule of thumb is 2 tacos per person.

These taco shells are perfect for parties. I can make a big batch ahead of time and then just reheat them when I'm ready to serve.

I'm not a big fan of crispy taco shells, but these were surprisingly good. They were still crispy, but they weren't too hard. And the flavor was great.

These taco shells are a great way to use up leftover tortillas. I just cut the tortillas into wedges and bake them in the oven until they're crispy.

I love how customizable these taco shells are. I can make them as mild or as spicy as I want, and I can add any toppings I like.

These taco shells are a lifesaver on busy weeknights. I can have dinner on the table in no time with these shells and some pre-cooked fillings.

These taco shells are a great way to get my kids to eat more vegetables. I just fill them with their favorite veggies and they gobble them up.

I've tried a lot of different taco shell recipes, but this one is by far the best. The shells are always crispy and golden brown, and they never break when I'm filling them.

These taco shells were a hit at my party! They were so crispy and delicious, and they held up well to all the fillings. I'll definitely be making these again.
