How to Make Beef Soft Tacos

  1. In a medium bowl, combine 1 lb ground beef, 2 tbsp all-purpose flour, 1 tsp salt, 1/2 cup minced onion, 1 tbsp paprika, 1 tbsp chili powder, 1 tsp garlic powder, and 1 tsp onion powder. Use your hands to thoroughly mix.
  2. Heat a large skillet over medium-low heat.
  3. Add the beef mixture and 1/4 cup of water to the skillet.
  4. Cook the beef, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and cooked through (approximately 8-10 minutes). Drain any excess grease.
  5. While the beef cooks, heat tortillas. Wrap 6-8 tortillas in damp paper towels and microwave for 30-60 seconds, or until warm and pliable.
  6. Fill each warm tortilla with the seasoned beef. Top with your favorite toppings such as shredded cheese, diced tomatoes, shredded lettuce, and sour cream.
