Beef Taquitos: An Amazing Ultimate Recipe You Must Try


  • Author: Olivia
  • Total Time: 45 minutes

Ingredients

– 1 pound ground beef
– 1 small onion, finely chopped
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 tablespoon taco seasoning
– 1/2 teaspoon salt
– 12 small corn tortillas
– Oil for frying
– Optional toppings: shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, cheese, sour cream, guacamole, and salsa


Instructions

Making Beef Taquitos can be an enjoyable cooking experience. Follow these steps for a delicious outcome:

1. Cook the Beef: In a skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef with chopped onions until the meat is fully cooked. Drain any excess fat.
2. Add Flavor: Stir in the minced garlic, taco seasoning, and salt. Cook for another 2 minutes until aromatic, then remove from heat.
3. Warm Tortillas: In a separate skillet, lightly heat the corn tortillas for about 30 seconds on each side. This will make them pliable for rolling.
4. Fill the Tortillas: Take a warmed tortilla and place about 2 tablespoons of the beef mixture near one end.
5. Roll it Up: Carefully roll the tortilla tightly around the filling. Seal the edges with a bit of water, if necessary.
6. Fry the Taquitos: In a frying pan, heat oil over medium heat. Once hot, carefully place the rolled taquitos seam-side down in the skillet. Fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side, then remove and drain on paper towels.
7. Repeat: Continue the process until all the tortillas are filled, rolled, and cooked.

By following these steps, you’ll soon have a plateful of crispy Beef Taquitos waiting to be enjoyed.
