Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 small Corn tortillas
- 1 pound Ground beef
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 medium, finely chopped Onion
- 2 cloves, minced Garlic
- 2 teaspoons Chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Cumin
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt

- 1 tablespoon Lime juice
- 1 large, sliced Avocado

Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion and cook until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the minced garlic and stir for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until no longer pink, about 6-8 minutes.
Stir in the chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Cook for another 2 minutes to toast the spices.
Remove from heat and stir in the lime juice.
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Place the corn tortillas on a baking sheet and warm them in the oven for 3-4 minutes to make them pliable.
Assemble the mini tacos by placing a spoonful of the beef mixture onto each tortilla.
Top with sliced avocado, diced tomato, chopped cilantro, and shredded cheese.
Return to the oven for 3-5 minutes or until the cheese is melted.
Serve immediately with a dollop of sour cream, if desired.
