Brown the beef in a skillet over medium-high heat. Break it up with a spoon as it cooks. About 5–6 minutes until no pink remains.

Add the onion and garlic. Cook until the onion is soft and translucent, 2–3 minutes. Your kitchen should smell like taco victory by now.

Sprinkle in the taco seasoning. Stir to coat the meat, letting the spices wake up for about 30 seconds.

Pour in water or broth. Simmer 4–5 minutes, until the mixture thickens slightly and the flavors marry. Taste and adjust salt if needed.

Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave. Keep them soft and flexible—napping tortillas are the dream.

Fill each tortilla with the seasoned beef. Top with your favorite fixings: cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, cilantro, and a dollop of sour cream if you’re into rich vibes.

Serve immediately and revel in the taco glory. Optional: squeeze a lime over the top for a bright finish.
