Fried Tacos

These are probably one of my favorite meals to make.  These are by no means healthy but none the less some of the best tacos you will ever have.  One hit I had to learn the hard way is always wear long sleeves when making these. :)

Fried Tacos

 

yield: approx. 10

 

Ingredients:

 

1 lb. 93/7% ground beef (this can be substituted with ground turkey)

1/2 Vidalia onion (diced)

1 small green pepper (diced)

1 pkg. taco seasoning

salt and pepper to taste

1 pkg. corn tortilla shells

vegetable oil

 

**optional toppings: shredded cheese, onions, tomatoes, sour cream, guacamole or anything you like**

 

1.  Take the ground beef, onions and peppers and cook in the skillet until meat is brown.

 

2. In a sauce pan or fry pan and fill about 1/2 inch up the side of the skillet. Set your heat on medium (or in between 4 and 5) until oil is hot.

 

3.  Take a large spoon and add one scoop of meat to the corn tortilla shell.  Place in the oil and lay on one side.  This is very tricky because these break really easily!! Also, be careful not over fill these, if the meat gets in the oil it will burn and start to burn and smell. 

 

4.  Once you have the one side of the taco slightly brown with tongs flip the tacos to the other side until other side is brown.  Place on a paper towel and repeat with remaining tacos. 

 

Have a blessed day!!
