Ground Beef Tacos image

Making a ground beef taco filling ain't rocket science. You just cook ground meat with Tex-Mex seasonings. This recipe is a little spicy, but feel free to skip the serranos and substitute a packaged taco seasoning mixture for the spices, especially if you're cooking for kids. Many taco seasoning mixes, such as Old El Paso and Ortega, come in your choice of spicy or mild.

Number Of Ingredients 16

For the filling:
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/2 onion, chopped
1/2 pound ground beef or vegetarian substitute, such as Lightlife Plant-Based Ground
1 garlic clove, minced
1 serrano chile, stemmed and chopped
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
For the tacos:
1 1/2 cups grated Cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese
1 1/2 cups chopped tomato
1 1/2 cups chopped iceberg lettuce
6 taco shells
1 cup Salsa Picante or favorite salsa, optional

Steps:

  • For the filling:
  • Heat the oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the onion until it begins to wilt, about 2 minutes. Add the meat and sear, chopping with a spatula into small pieces until the pink color is gone. Add the garlic and chile and cook for 2 minutes or until the garlic is soft. Add the salt, chili powder, black pepper, cumin, and a tablespoon of water, mix well, and cook for 2 to 3 minutes or until well blended.
  • Assembly:
  • To assemble the tacos, put 1/4 cup meat mixture, then 1/4 cup each cheese, chopped tomato, and lettuce on each taco shell. Drizzle with salsa if desired.

I'm not a huge fan of ground beef tacos, but these were actually really good! The avocado crema is a game-changer.

The tacos were good, but I found the recipe to be a bit bland. I added some extra spices to the beef and it really helped.
