Instructions
- Add the beef and onions to a skillet over medium-high heat. Once you've broken the meat up a bit with your spoon, add in the spices. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 8-10 minutes or until the beef has cooked through. Spoon out excess fat if there's a lot of it.
- Preheat your oven broiler (high heat setting) and move the rack to the top third of the oven.
- Reduce the stove heat to medium and add in the black beans, salsa, and tortillas. Toss gently until the tortillas are folded in (I find it easiest to do this with two spoons), and ensure they're spread out around the skillet fairly evenly (so everyone gets some when you dish it up). See note below on another method you can try if you don't want the tortillas to be very soft/soak up liquid.
- Let the skillet heat through for a few minutes.
- Top the skillet with the cheese, and transfer it to your oven. Leave it in there for a few minutes so the cheese gets nice and bubbly and browned (watch it carefully).
- Serve immediately with desired toppings. Season with salt & pepper if needed.
Notes
- The tortillas will soften up/soak up some liquid, so if you're not a fan of that, you can either just leave them out entirely (serve them on the side as you would with normal tacos) or add them as a layer between the meat and the cheese (without stirring them in) just before popping the skillet in the oven.
