Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Gluten-free flour blend
- 1 teaspoon Xanthan gum
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.75 cup Warm water
- 4 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 1 pound Ground beef
- 2 tablespoons Taco seasoning (gluten-free)
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup Lettuce, shredded
- 1 medium Tomato, diced
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 0.5 cup Guacamole
- 2 cups Vegetable oil (for frying)
Instructions
In a large bowl, mix together the gluten-free flour blend, xanthan gum, salt, and baking powder.
Gradually add the warm water and 4 tablespoons of vegetable oil into the dry ingredients, stirring until a dough forms. The dough should be soft but not sticky.
Divide the dough into 8 equal portions and roll each portion into a ball.
On a lightly floured surface, roll each dough ball into a 6-inch circle.
Heat the vegetable oil for frying in a deep pan over medium-high heat.
Fry each dough circle in the hot oil until golden and crispy on both sides, about 1-2 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned. Drain any excess fat.
Add the gluten-free taco seasoning and 1/4 cup of water to the cooked beef. Stir and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes or until the seasoning is well incorporated.
To assemble the chalupa supreme, take a fried chalupa shell and spread a layer of seasoned beef on top.
Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the beef.
Add a handful of shredded lettuce and a few diced tomato pieces.
Top with a dollop of sour cream and a spoonful of guacamole.
Repeat the assembly process for the remaining chalupa shells.
Serve immediately and enjoy your homemade, gluten-free chalupa supremes!
