Recipe: Pocho Taco


Pocho Taco

5 stars

Amazing tacos with so much flavor!!!  Definitely restaurant-worthy;  however, this is not a quick weekday meal as preparation of all the ingredients takes a bit of time.

Picadillo Ingredients:  ground beef chuck, russet potato, yellow onion, shallot, pine nuts, Kosher salt, ground pepper, vegetable oil, dried pequin chile or crushed red pepper flakes, ground cumin, onion powder, garlic powder, chicken broth

Salsa and Assembly Ingredients:  tomatoes, red onion, garlic, serrano, jalapeno, white wine vinegar, Kosher salt, shallot, creme fraiche or sour cream, chives, lemon zest, lemon juice, hard taco shells and grated cheddar for serving

Tips:
  • Added avocado and lettuce
  • Add cilantro next time
  • The salsa was quite strong so would recommend cooking it a bit on the stove to cook off some of the garlic and chile compounds
