Ingredients
Scale
For the ground beef filling:
- 1 pound lean ground beef (90%)
- 1 packet of taco seasoning
- 3/4 cup red enchilada sauce
For assembling the tacos:
- 2 1/2 cups Oaxaca cheese or Mexican cheese or Monterey Jack
- 10 corn tortillas
- 1 tbs olive oil
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 450F.
- Cook the ground beef: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Brown the ground beef, breaking it up as it cooks. Stir in the taco seasoning and enchilada sauce. Bring to a simmer, then remove from heat.
- Prepare the tortillas: Wrap tortillas in a damp paper towel and microwave for 30–60 seconds until pliable.
- Assemble the tacos: Brush one side of each tortilla with olive oil. Place the tortilla on a baking sheet, oiled side down. Add 2 tablespoons of cheese to half of the tortilla, top with ¼ cup of beef, then add 2 more tablespoons of cheese. Fold the tortilla over the filling.
- Bake the tacos: Repeat with the remaining tortillas and arrange the tacos in a single layer on your baking sheet. Bake for 16 minutes, or until tortillas are crispy and cheese is melted. Let tacos cool for 3 minutes before serving.
