Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Sauté the diced red onion until it becomes translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the minced garlic and stir for another 30 seconds until fragrant.
Stir in the black beans (drained and rinsed), ground cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until the beans are heated through and slightly mashed with the back of a spoon.
Warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet or directly over a low flame for about 30 seconds per side until soft and pliable.
To assemble the tacos, layer some shredded lettuce, the black bean mixture, halved cherry tomatoes, avocado slices, and chopped cilantro onto the tortillas.
Add a squeeze of fresh lime juice to each taco and drizzle with hot sauce if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
