Ingredients
  

For the Beef Tacos:

1 lb ground beef (80/20 preferable for flavor)

1 small onion, finely chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 tablespoon chili powder

1 teaspoon cumin

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

8 small corn or flour tortillas

For the Avocado Lime Sauce:

1 ripe avocado

1/4 cup Greek yogurt (or sour cream)

Juice of 1 lime

1 clove garlic, minced

Salt to taste

Fresh cilantro for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Cook the Beef:

    - In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, sautéing until soft and fragrant (about 2-3 minutes).

      - Increase the heat to medium-high and add the ground beef. Cook, breaking it apart with a spatula, until browned and fully cooked (about 5-7 minutes).

        - Stir in the chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, and season with salt and pepper. Cook for another 2 minutes to allow the spices to meld.

          Prepare the Avocado Lime Sauce:

            - While the beef is cooking, in a medium bowl, mash the ripe avocado. Add Greek yogurt (or sour cream), lime juice, minced garlic, and salt. Mix until smooth and creamy. Adjust seasoning as needed.

              Warm the Tortillas:

                - In a dry skillet, warm the tortillas over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side until soft and pliable. Alternatively, wrap in foil and heat in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes.

                  Assemble the Tacos:

                    - On each tortilla, add a generous scoop of the seasoned beef. Drizzle with the avocado lime sauce and garnish with fresh cilantro if desired.

                      Serve:

                        - Serve your delicious beef tacos with additional lime wedges on the side for an extra burst of flavor. Enjoy the quick and tasty bites!
