Crispy Rolled Tacos
- Prep Time: 15
- Cook Time: 15
- Total Time: 30 minutes
- Yield: 8+
- Category: main dish
- Method: stove top
- Cuisine: mexican
Ingredients
- 1 lb. Meat Mixture (see note!)
- 2 cups Shredded Cheddar Cheese
- Flour or Corn Tortillas usually one package will do! (I like the fajita-sized tortilla!)
- Vegetable Oil for frying
Instructions
- On a clean work surface, lay out one tortilla.
- Add 1-2 tablespoons of cheese in the center of the tortilla.
- Top with 1-2 tablespoons of the meat mixture.
- Roll the tortilla up over it, pulling back slightly to keep everything contained well.
- If you feel like you need to secure with a toothpick, go for it!
- Get all your rolled tacos ready for the fryer before you start frying.
- Preheat your vegetable oil (about an inch up your skillet) to 350 degrees.
- Gently place the rolled tacos into the oil and fry on all sides until golden brown.
- Pro Tip: Once you’ve added 4-5 to your skillet, go back to the first one and start rolling around to keep them moving. Work your way “down the line” over and over.
- Remove the crispy rolled tacos from the oil and drain on a paper towel or wire rack.
- Serve with shredded lettuce, salsa, sour cream, or any of your favorite taco toppings!
Notes
For your meat mixture, you could use ground beef, chicken, shredded beef, etc.
