1

Prepare the beef filling

Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a drizzle of olive oil. Cook 1 pound of lean ground beef until browned. Drain any excess fat. Add 1 finely chopped onion, 2 minced garlic cloves, and cook for an additional 2 minutes.

2

Add flavor and spice

Sprinkle in 1 tablespoon of chili powder, 1 teaspoon of cumin, 1/2 teaspoon of paprika, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir well to coat the beef mixture with the spices. Cook for another 2 minutes to let the flavors meld together.

3

Simmer to perfection

Pour in 1/2 cup of beef broth and bring the mixture to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low and let it cook for 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to develop and the liquid to reduce slightly.

4

Warm up the tortillas

While the beef mixture simmers, wrap the tortillas in foil and warm them in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 5 minutes. Alternatively, you can heat them on a dry skillet over medium heat for 1 minute per side.

5

Assemble and serve

Spoon the beef filling onto the warmed tortillas. Top with your favorite taco toppings like shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, sliced avocado, and a dollop of Greek yogurt or salsa. Fold, savor the moment, and enjoy your healthy and delicious beef tacos!
