Ingredients
Potatoes:
- 2 russet potatoes large, baking
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder Or swap favorite seasoning
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon red chili flakes
- 2 teaspoon salt
Spicy Yogurt Sauce:
- ½ cup yogurt plain, whole milk preferred
- 2 teaspoons hot sauce I used Cholula. Use more or less hot sauce depending on heat level of the hot sauce, favorite, mild
Taco Shells:
- 8 corn tortilla or flour tortilla
- oil a few drops, for brushing the pan
Taco Toppings:
- 4 ounces pepper jack cheese freshly grated
- 1 avocado thinly sliced
- ⅛ cup chives finely chopped
Extra Toppings (Optional):
- 1 lime cut into 8 wedges
- salsa
- hot sauce
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400ºF.
- Cut the potatoes into small cubes, about ¼" across.
- Lay the potatoes in a single layer on an unlined baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and toss the potatoes in the oil.In a small bowl, add the chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, and red chili flakes. Stir to combine, and then sprinkle the spices over the potatoes.
- Bake potatoes for 20 minutes, and then turn the potatoes. Bake about 10 more minutes, or until potatoes are crispy.
- While the potatoes roast, mix yogurt and hot sauce together with a spoon.
- Brush a non-stick or cast iron pan with oil. Heat the pan over medium-high heat, and cook the tortillas one at a time. Heat about 30 seconds on the first side and 15 seconds on the other side, until each side begins to bubble up.Keep tortillas warm by placing on a plate and covering with a towel.
- When the potatoes finish roasting, sprinkle with salt.
- To assemble the tacos, divide the potatoes, cheese, and avocado among the tortillas. Top each taco with a dollop of sauce and a few chives. Alternatively, arrange all the ingredients as a taco bar and let everyone build their own tacos.Serve right away while the potatoes and tortillas are still warm.
