Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 18

Ingredients

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 lb. ground beef
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano (or Italian seasoning)
1/2 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper (or to taste)
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1/4 cup beef broth or water
8 small flour tortillas
1 cup Mexican cheese blend, shredded
2 medium tomatoes, diced
1 medium red onion or white onion, diced
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, finely chopped
1/4 cup sour cream (optional)
1 lime, wedged

Steps:

Heat oil in a large skillet for 2 minutes over medium-high heat until the hot oil sizzles. Add ground beef and stir well to cook evenly until browned, about 6-8 minutes. Make sure to break up beef into small pieces to help even browning.
Add cumin, chili powder, paprika, garlic powder, oregano, salt, pepper, tomato paste and beef broth. Reduce heat to medium and let the mixture simmer for 3-5 minutes until the sauce thickens a bit, stirring occasionally. Turn off heat and set aside.
Heat the soft flour tortillas according to the package instructions, or heat in an ungreased skillet over medium-high heat for 30 seconds per side. You can also heat it directly on a gas burner for a few seconds to get char marks on the edges.
Add 2-3 tablespoons of the ground beef mixture on each tortilla. Top with cheese, onion, tomato and cilantro. Add a dollop of sour cream and a squeeze of fresh lime juice, to taste.
