Instructions
For the Seasoning
Mix together all seasoning ingredients in a small bowl until combined. Set aside.
For the Tacos
Preheat oven to 350°.
Add ground beef to medium skillet over medium high heat.
Cook until beef is browned through (about 5-8 minutes), then strain off extra fat.
Add beef back to skillet along with two tablespoons of seasoning mixture and mix to combine. Set aside until shells are ready to fill.
In a separate pan, heat one tbsp olive oil over medium high heat.
While oil is heating, prep a sheet pan by covering with a sheet of parchment paper.
Once oil is hot, add one tortilla at a time to oil, frying for about 15 seconds each side. This will make the tortillas more pliable when filling. DO NOT over cook at this stage! It's okay if the edges get a little crisp, but the tortilla needs to be foldable.
As each tortilla is finished frying, transfer to baking sheet to be filled.
Add about 2 tbsp of meat and 1 to 2 tsp of cheese to the tortilla, and fold in half like a taco.
Repeat until all eight tortillas are fried and filled. If you have any leftover filling, just add it evenly to the already made tacos.
Place on the middle rack of the oven at 350° for 15 minutes, or until edges look golden brown and crispy.
Carefully open each taco to stuff with your favorite toppings! Serve with beans and my green apple slaw.
For the Slaw
Prep the slaw while tacos are in the oven.
To cut apple into match sticks: Start by cutting 4 large slices around the core to remove the core. You only need 1/2 the apple, so save the other 2 for snacking later (or making more slaw!). Take one of the apple slices and place it on your cutting board with the skin facing up. Proceed to make top-to-bottom ¼ inch cuts across the slice. Line the slices back up and flip them on their side in a single stack. Starting with the flat edge, and working your way to the rounded edge of the stack, make ¼ cuts across again, resulting in long, thin slices. Repeat with the other apple slice.
In a medium sized bowl, add the sliced apples, slaw mix, mayonnaise, and apple cider vinegar. Stir to combine thoroughly.
Keep in the fridge until ready to serve.
