Sesame Beef Tacos

Adapted from Hello Fresh. See the original recipe here.

All you need to know here is that this is the BEST, most ELEVATED taco meat mixture I’ve ever tasted. I haven’t used regular taco seasoning in over a year since discovering this!

INGREDIENTS

• 2 sliced scallions

• 1 lb ground beef

• 2 tsp garlic powder

• 5 tsp sugar

• 2 tbsp sesame oil

• 2-3 tsp sriracha

• crushed red pepper to taste

• 2 tbsp soy sauce

• salt/pepper to taste

• sesame seeds to taste

DIRECTIONS

1. Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a medium high skillet and add sliced scallion whites and some of the scallion greens. Cook for 4-5 minutes.

2. Add ground beef, garlic powder, & sugar to the skillet. Break up the meat and stir as it browns completely, usually about 5-6 minutes.

3. Add sesame oil, sriracha, crushed red pepper, & soy sauce. Season with salt & pepper. (This is a good time to add in more sugar if you’d like!) Top with sesame seeds if you have them.

4. Build your taco the way you like it and toss the leftover scallion greens on top!
