We’ve used minced beef rather than ground beef in these tacos for a different texture, and Kobe beef for a more intense beefy flavor. Add to that pronounced heat from the pimenton and jalapeno, crisp sour bite from the pickles, and fresh guacamole to cool things down, and you’ve got a real treat.
INGREDIENTS
- 1lb Kobe Beef (sirloin, tenderloin, skirt or hanger)
- 1 tsp Cumin
- 1 tsp Pimenton
- 1 tsp Black Pepper
- 3 tsp Salt
- 1 Red Jalapeno
- Corn Tortillas
- Plus:
- Pickled Radishes and/or Pickled Carrots (how to pickle at home) and Guacamole, either your favorite version or using our homemade guacamole recipe.
DIRECTIONS
1
Finely chop the beef, and blend it with the cumin, pimenton, black pepper, and salt.
2
Thinly slice the red jalapeno and sauté it in oil until softened. Remove it from the pan and add the beef.
3
Brown the beef.
4
Build each taco with beef, jalapeno, and the pickles of your choice.
5
Serve with guacamole on the side.
