Instructions

Make Tomato Salsa

Step 1
Cut the jalapeño peppers in half lengthwise, use a small knife or a spoon to scrape out the membrane and seeds. Finely dice the tomatoes, sweet onion, cilantros, and deseeded jalapeño peppers.
Step 2
Place all chopped ingredients in a serving bowl. Add 5 tbsps of lemon juice, ½ tsp of salt and ½ tsp of pepper. Mix well, cover with a food wrap and set aside. (Freshly made salsa can sit out for up to two hours at room temperature. Or you can store the salsa in the fridge for up to 5 days.)

Warm Up Taco Shells (*See Note 1)

Step 3
Place 3 to 4 tortillas between two slightly dampened kitchen towels.
Step 4
Microwave for 30 seconds until soft and warm.
Step 5
Optionally spray oil on both sides of each tortilla for a subtle oil taste. (It will also work without oil.)
Step 6
Fold each tortilla in half and insert them into a toaster.
Step 7
Toast them to your desired crispness. (It took my toaster about 4 minutes. Time might vary.)
Step 8
Transfer the toasted tortillas to a plate. Set aside. (They will turn crispier after they cool down. )

Cook Ground Beef Filling

Step 9
Heat a frying pan over medium heat. Add 3 tbsps of olive oil. Add the ground beef. Scoop out the excess grease. Pan fry until the ground beef is no longer pink.
Step 10
Add chopped onions. Pan fry until onions turn soft.
Step 11
Add 3 tsbps of Dan-O's Hot Chipotle Seasoning and mix well. (*See Note 2)
Step 12
Optionally add some salt and pepper to your taste.

Assemble Ground Beef Tacos

Step 13
Spread a thin layer of each ingredient into each taco shell in the order you like. The following is my preferred order: lettuce, ground beef, shredded cheese, tomato salsa, guacamole.
