Easy & Cheesy Taco Skillet (30-minute recipe) 😋

Got 30 minutes and ONE skillet? That's all you'll need! ❤️ (Full recipe below!)

If it weren't for this one-pot wonder, I may not have survived my college years at Texas A&M. lol

As a cooking newbie it was so easy to cook ground beef with peppers and onions, then mix it all together with a jar of salsa, taco seasonings and corn tortila strips. (Not to mention, the leftovers are incredible!)

It was a go-to then and is still a favorite of ours now!

INGREDIENTS:

1 pound 85/15 ground beef
1 tablespoon avocado oil
1 small sweet onion, thinly sliced
2 bell peppers, cut into 2-inch slices
3 garlic cloves, finely minced
½ cup chicken broth
1 tablespoon cumin
2 teaspoons paprika
1 teaspoon chili powder
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper, optional
1 ¼ teaspoons salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
1 (16-ounce) jar salsa
1 (15.25-ounce) can corn, drained
1 (15.5-ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed
6 corn tortillas
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Cilantro, chopped, optional
Sour cream, optional

INSTRUCTIONS:

Set the tortillas on a cutting board in a single layer. Slice in half. Place one stack of the tortillas so that the flat edge is facing you and slice width-wise into 6 even strips. Repeat with remaining stack. Set aside until ready to use.
Add the beef to a large skillet over medium heat. Cook, breaking apart, for about 7-8 minutes, or until browned. Transfer to a clean plate. Set aside.
Wipe out the skillet, add the oil, and return to medium heat. Once the oil is shimmering, add the onion and bell pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 4-5 minutes. Add the garlic and continue cooking for 30 seconds, or until fragrant. Pour in broth, scraping the bottom of the skillet to release any browned bits.
In a small bowl, whisk together the cumin, paprika, chili powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Add the seasoning mix to the skillet along with the ground beef, salsa, corn, and black beans. Toss to combine.
Add the tortilla strips and remaining broth to the skillet. Mix until all of the strips are well coated.
Cover the skillet, reduce the heat to low, and cook for 12-15 minutes, or until the tortillas are tender. Add the shredded cheese and continue to cook for 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted.
Serve with chopped cilantro and sour cream, if using.
