Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 piece medium onion, chopped
- 2 pieces garlic cloves, minced
- 2 teaspoons chili powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 cup water
- 8 pieces corn tortillas
- 0.5 piece head of romaine lettuce, shredded
- 2 pieces roma tomatoes, diced
- 1 piece avocado, sliced
- 1 piece lime, cut into wedges
- 0.25 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion and cook until softened, about 3 minutes.
Add the minced garlic and continue to cook for another minute, stirring frequently.
Add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it up with a spoon, and cook until no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes.
Drain any excess fat from the skillet.
Stir in the chili powder, ground cumin, paprika, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper until the beef is well coated with the spices.
Pour in the water and let the mixture simmer for 3-4 minutes until slightly thickened and the flavors meld together.
Warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 20 seconds on each side, or wrap them in a damp paper towel and microwave for 30 seconds.
To assemble the tacos, divide the beef mixture evenly among the warm tortillas.
Top each taco with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, and sliced avocado.
Garnish with chopped cilantro and a squeeze of lime juice before serving.
