Beef Taquitos

with Zesty Guacamole

Taquitos are a traditional Mexican street food that are typically deep fried. We’ve baked ours instead for a healthy twist! They crisp beautifully in the oven while the cheesy centre melts.

Before starting, preheat the oven to 450°F. Wash and dry all produce. Roughly chop cilantro. Peel, then mince shallot. Cut tomatoes into 1/4-inch pieces. Zest, then juice half the lime. Cut remaining lime into wedges. Combine tomatoes, cilantro, shallots, lime zest, 1 tsp lime juice and 1/2 tsp sugar (dbl both for 4 ppl) in a small bowl . Set aside.

Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add 1/2 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl), then beef. Cook, breaking up beef into smaller pieces, until no pink remains, 4-5 min.** Carefully drain and discard excess fat.

On a clean surface, arrange tortillas. Using a slotted spoon, divide beef mixture down the middle of each tortilla. Sprinkle cheese over top.
