Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 pieces Corn tortillas (gluten-free)
- 1 pound Ground beef
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 medium Onion, finely chopped
- 2 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon Cumin powder
- 1 teaspoon Chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 2 cups Lettuce, shredded
- 2 medium Tomato, diced
- 2 pieces Avocado, sliced
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 4 pieces Lime wedges
Instructions
In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, and sauté until the onion is translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and cooked through, approximately 8-10 minutes.
Stir in the cumin powder, chili powder, salt, and black pepper, mixing well to combine. Cook for another 2 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Remove the beef mixture from the heat and set aside.
In another skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and heat over medium-high heat.
Lightly fry each corn tortilla for about 1 minute per side, or until crispy but still pliable. Remove and blot any excess oil with paper towels. Fold each tortilla in half gently while it's warm to form a taco shell.
Fill each taco shell with a generous spoonful of the beef mixture.
Top the beef with shredded cheddar cheese, shredded lettuce, and diced tomatoes.
Add a few slices of avocado to each taco, and a dollop of sour cream on top.
Serve the tacos with lime wedges on the side for added zest.
Enjoy your gluten-free crispy tacos while they're fresh and hot!
