Treat yourself to the rich and savory flavors of Taco de Carne Picada tonight—a delightful way to enjoy traditional Mexican cooking!

1

Start by finely chopping the onion and garlic as you heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. This should take about 2 minutes to warm up.

2

Once the oil is hot, add the chopped onion and garlic to the skillet. Sauté them for about 3-5 minutes until the onion is translucent and fragrant.

3

Next, add the 1 pound of beef to the skillet. Season with 1 teaspoon of salt and 1 teaspoon of pepper. Stir thoroughly to combine, breaking the meat apart as it cooks.

4

Cook the beef for approximately 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it’s browned and cooked through.

5

While the meat cooks, chop the cilantro and prepare the lime by cutting it into wedges.

6

Once the beef is done, remove the skillet from heat and warm the taco shells according to package instructions, usually around 5 minutes.

7

To assemble the tacos, fill each shell with the chopped beef, sprinkle with fresh cilantro, and squeeze a wedge of lime over the top.
