We are having our favorite meal tonight of Tacos. So I found a new recipe to try on the family. Hopefully it will be as tasty as it looked when I saw it.
Actually it looked mouth watering
Corn tortillas (as many as tacos you want to make, packaged or homemade)
Butter
Cheddar or jack cheese
Salsa (homemade or prepared)
Optional ingredients
Avocado
Apple
Lettuce
Strips of cooked chicken, beef, or pork (a great use of leftovers)
1 Heat up the cast iron frying pan on medium high heat. While the pan is heating, prepare your ingredients. Cut some slices of cheese. Get the salsa out of the fridge. Thinly slice as many slices of apple as you want tacos. (3 tacos, 3 apple slices). Cut, remove seed, slice, and remove from skin the avocado slices you want. Slice some lettuce and any leftover meat you want to add in.
2 When the pan is hot (sprinkle a few drops of water on it, they should sizzle) lightly butter one side of one tortilla and place it in the pan, butter side down. Using a spatula, quickly flip the tortilla over to the other side, and back again, repeating until there is melted butter on both sides of the tortilla. Let the tortilla sit in hot pan until pockets of air start to form bubbles in the tortilla.
3 Add slices of cheese to one side of the tortilla. Make sure to allow room for the cheese to melt and not spread all over the pan.
4 Flip the side of tortilla without the cheese over the side with the cheese, as if you were making an omelets.
Move the folded cheese taco to one side of the pan. Add a second tortilla, lightly buttered on one side, and repeat the process. You can tell when the taco is done by pressing down on it with a spoon or fork or edge of the spatula. If it gives easily, the cheese is melted and you can remove the taco from the pan.
5 You are basically done with the cheese tacos. Now all you have left to do is assembly.
