Instructions
- Heat 2 teaspoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- When the oil is hot, add 1 pound of ground beef and stir with a wooden spoon for 2 to 3 minutes until browned and mostly cooked through. Make sure you are breaking up the beef into small pieces.
- If there is any oil in the skillet, drain it. Add ⅔ cup passata sauce, 2 tablespoons taco seasoning, and ¼ cup of water or broth.
- Stir until combined and lower the heat to medium to medium low. Let the taco meat simmer for up to 10 minutes or until the tomato sauce as cooked down to your desired sauciness.
- Meanwhile, add a paper towel to a sheet pan.
- Add ½ cup of oil to another large skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, add the tortilla to the oil and fry each side for about 30 seconds.
- Using tongs, transfer the tortillas to the lined sheet pan to absorb any extra oil, and carefully fold the tortilla over to create a taco shape.
- When done, serve the tortillas with the taco meat and your desired toppings.
