  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 Tbsp chili powder
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp ground coriander

👨‍🍳 Instructions

  1. 1In a large skillet, cook the ground beef and diced onion over medium high heat until the meat is completely browned. Use a paper towel to drain off any fat.
  2. 2Add the salt, chili powder, garlic powder, cumin, coriander, oregano, and red pepper flakes. Cook and stir just until fragrant, about 60 seconds.
  3. 3Turn heat to medium or medium low and add the tomato sauce, chicken broth, and sugar. Stir together, then simmer until thickened, 5-10 minutes.
  4. 4While the meat is simmering, prepare your toppings. Wash and dice the lettuce and tomatoes, and grate the cheese. And of course prep any other toppings you are using.
  5. 5To serve, you can let people assemble their own tacos, or you can put them together yourself and place them in a serving dish.
