Instructions
In a large skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef and chopped onion. Sauté until the beef is browned and the onion is soft, about 8-10 minutes.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and cook for another minute until fragrant.
Stir in the chili powder, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until the spices are evenly distributed and continue to cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
Remove the skillet from heat and let it cool slightly.
Wash and pat dry the romaine lettuce leaves, which will serve as the taco 'shells'.
Assemble each mini taco by spooning a portion of the ground beef mixture onto the center of a romaine leaf.
Top with diced cherry tomatoes, avocado, and a sprinkle of chopped cilantro.
Serve the mini tacos with lime wedges on the side for squeezing fresh lime juice over the top.
