Crispy Arizona-Style Fried Beef Tacos

1. 1

   Assemble all the ingredients.

2. 2

   Place 8 tortillas flat on a work surface.

3. 3

   Mix beef, taco seasoning, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl.

4. 4

   Spread 1/4 cup of the beef mixture onto one half of each tortilla.

5. 5

   Heat 1/4 inch of oil in a high-sided skillet over medium heat until it shimmers. Working in batches, carefully lay one taco at a time, flat, into the hot oil.

6. 6

   Using tongs to hold the empty side of the tortilla, fold it over the beef filling once the shell softens, about 5 seconds.

7. 7

   Cook, turning once, until the shell is golden brown and the beef is no longer pink in the center, 30 seconds to 1 minute per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should register at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).

8. 8

   Move tacos to a paper towel-lined plate and sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt.

9. 9

   Serve right away topped with onion and cilantro. Serve with lime wedges, salsa, and hot sauce.
