Ingredients
Instructions
Warm a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef or turkey and cook, breaking into crumbles, until browned with crispy bits, 6–8 minutes; drain excess fat if needed.
Add diced onion and cook until translucent, 3–4 minutes. Stir in garlic for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Mix in tomato paste and cook 1 minute to caramelize.
Sprinkle in taco seasoning and salt; stir well.
Pour in broth and simmer 3–5 minutes until thick and saucy, not watery. Finish with a squeeze of lime and adjust seasoning.
Set up the taco bar: keep meat warm (slow cooker on Warm or covered skillet on low). Stand individual chip bags in a basket and lightly crush in sealed bags.
Arrange toppings in small bowls with spoons: cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, onion, jalapeño, cilantro, avocado, sour cream, salsas, and lime wedges.
Assemble a walking taco: open a chip bag, add ⅓–½ cup hot taco meat, top with cheese to melt, add lettuce, tomatoes, onion, jalapeños, and cilantro, then finish with avocado, sour cream, salsa, and a squeeze of lime.
