Instructions
- Heat oil in skillet on medium-low heat. Add diced onions with a pinch of salt. Cook onions about 2 minutes. Increase heat to medium-high and add ground beef. Break meat into crumbles and cook about 8 to 10 minutes or until cooked through. Drain grease from skillet and reserve for later steps.
- Combine water and Original Taco Seasoning Mix in a bowl; whisk together until well combined. Add to skillet with cooked meat. Bring to boil, then reduce heat and simmer 5 minutes while occasionally stirring. Once done, remove meat mixture from skillet and drain any drippings into bowl with the reserved drained grease.
- To assemble tacos, spoon cooked meat onto one side of the tortilla. Top with shredded cheese along with other desired toppings, then fold over to close the taco. Repeat steps for each taco.
- Heat about 1 tablespoon of reserved grease in a clean skillet on medium-low heat. Once hot, add 1 to 2 tacos at a time, pressing down lightly to ensure even browning. Cook tacos about 1 to 2 minutes per side or until the tortillas are browned and crispy. Repeat steps for each taco, then serve and enjoy.
