Ingredients

Scale

Tortillas

  • 6 6-inch tortillas

Taco Filling

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1/2 cup onion, chopped
  • 12 tablespoons taco seasoning, or more to taste
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1/4 cup salsa

Toppings

  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to prepare for cooking the tacos on a sheet pan.
  2. Prepare the taco filling: In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, chopped onion, taco seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix well until the beef is evenly coated with the seasoning.
  3. Arrange on the sheet pan: Spread out the tortillas flat on a large sheet pan. Distribute the seasoned ground beef mixture evenly over each tortilla, then spoon the salsa over the beef.
  4. Add cheese: Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese generously on top of the beef and salsa on each tortilla.
  5. Bake the tacos: Place the sheet pan in the preheated oven and bake for about 10-15 minutes, or until the beef is cooked through, the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the tortillas are slightly crispy on the edges.
  6. Serve: Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Serve the sheet pan tacos hot with optional garnishes like sour cream, guacamole, or fresh cilantro if desired.

Notes

  • For extra crispness, broil the tacos for 1-2 minutes at the end of baking but watch closely to prevent burning.
  • You can substitute ground beef with ground turkey or chicken for a leaner option.
  • Use corn or flour tortillas depending on your preference.
  • Adjust taco seasoning quantity based on your spice tolerance.
  • This recipe is easy to customize with additional toppings such as diced tomatoes, lettuce, or jalapeños.
