Cooking Steps

Prep and make salsa fresca
1
  • Before starting, wash and dry all produce.
  • Core, then cut pepper into 1/4-inch slices.
  • Peel, then cut onion into 1/4-inch slices. Finely chop one quarter of the onions. Reserve remaining onions for step 2.
  • Zest, then juice half the lime (whole lime for 4 servings). Cut any remaining lime into wedges.
  • Cut tomatoes into 1/4-inch pieces.
  • To a small bowl, add tomatoes, finely chopped onions, 1/2 tsp (1 tsp) sugar, 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) lime juice and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil.
  • Season with salt and pepper, then stir to combine. Set aside.
Cook veggies
2
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
  • When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then peppers and remaining onions.
  • Cook for 5-6 min, stirring often, until tender and beginning to brown.
  • Add half the Mexican Seasoning. Stir to combine.
  • Remove from heat, then season with salt and pepper.
  • Transfer veggies to a medium bowl.
Make lime crema
3
  • To another small bowl, add sour cream and lime zest.
  • Season with salt and pepper, then stir to combine.
Cook beef
4
  • Reheat the same pan (from step 2) over medium-high.
  • When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then beef.
  • Cook for 4-6 min, breaking up beef into smaller pieces, until no pink remains.**
  • Carefully drain and discard excess fat.
  • Add remaining Mexican Seasoning.
  • Cook for 30 sec, stirring often, until fragrant. Season with pepper.
Warm tortillas (optional)
5
  • Just before serving, wrap tortillas in paper towels. (NOTE: For 4 servings, divide tortillas into two equal stacks, then wrap in paper towels.)
  • Microwave for 30 sec-1 min, until tortillas are warm and flexible. (TIP: You can skip this step if you don't want to warm the tortillas.)
Finish and serve
6
  • Roughly chop cilantro.
  • Top tortillas with beef and veggies, then spoon salsa fresca over top.
  • Dollop with lime crema and sprinkle with cheese.
  • Sprinkle cilantro over top.
  • Squeeze a lime wedge over top, if you like.
