DOUBLE DECKER TACOS



Double Decker Tacos image

The best tacos! A soft shell taco is layered with refried beans, then wrapped around a hard shell taco, which is filled with seasoned ground beef and topped with cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, sour cream and fresh guacamole. You can top it with whatever you like, but I recommend loading it up! Also, if you don't eat meat, put melted cheese on the soft shell, and the refried beans in the hard.

Time 45m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 pound ground beef
1 (1 ounce) packet taco seasoning mix, divided
1 (16 ounce) can refried beans
⅔ cup water
12 prepared crisp taco shells
2 avocados
1 tablespoon sour cream
1 fresh lime, juiced
salt and black pepper to taste
12 (7 inch) flour tortillas
2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
1 cup shredded lettuce
1 large tomato, chopped
¼ red onion, chopped
½ cup sour cream

Steps:

  • Place the ground beef in a skillet over medium heat, and sprinkle about 3/4 of the packet of taco seasoning over the meat. Cook and stir the ground beef, breaking it up as it cooks, until the beef is browned and crumbly, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain the excess grease.
  • Mash the refried beans with the water in a small saucepan, and sprinkle with the rest of the seasoning packet. Heat the refried beans over low heat until simmering.
  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Place the crisp taco shells on a baking sheet, and warm them in the preheated oven for 3 to 5 minutes.
  • To make the guacamole, peel, seed, and mash the avocados in a bowl with 1 tablespoon of sour cream, the lime juice, and salt and pepper to taste, and set aside.
  • To build the tacos, spread each flour tortilla with about 2 tablespoons of heated refried beans. Wrap the tortilla gently around a crisp tortilla shell. Spread about 2 tablespoons of ground beef along the bottom of the crisp shell, and sprinkle about 2 tablespoons of shredded Cheddar cheese on top of the meat. Top the cheese with shredded lettuce, a sprinkle of chopped tomato and onion, and a dollop of sour cream and guacamole.

GIANT DOUBLE DECKER TACO

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h20m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 cups vegetable oil
4 large flour tortillas
3/4 cup grated Mexican blend cheese
Ground Beef Taco Meat, recipe follows
1/2 head iceberg lettuce, shaved
1/2 cup sour cream or Mexican crema, stirred slightly to loosen
2 Roma tomatoes, diced
Sliced pickled jalapeños, for garnish
Fresh cilantro leaves, for garnish
1 pound ground chuck or sirloin-the leaner the better
5 ounces Mexican chorizo, removed from casing
1 small yellow onion, minced
1 tablespoon chipotle powder
1 tablespoon ground cumin
2 cloves garlic, grated on a rasp
1/2 cup tomato puree
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Fit a sheet pan with a wire rack.
  • Heat the oil to 350 degrees F in a large braiser or cast-iron skillet.
  • Using tongs, slip half of a tortilla in the hot oil to form a taco shell shape. Using a metal spatula with the other hand, keep half the tortilla submerged until golden. Turn the tortilla so that the fried part now sticks out of the oil, letting the bottom fry, while making sure to keep the tortilla open about 2 inches wide. (This creates the necessary space to stuff it!) Then gently turn the tortilla and repeat the process so that the remaining side fries to a golden brown while the rest stays out of the oil. Let the taco shell drain on the lined sheet pan. Fry another tortilla in this manner; reserve the other two tortillas.
  • Preheat the broiler.
  • Place one unfried tortilla in a pan and top it edge to edge with cheese. Lightly broil until the cheese is just melted, but the tortilla isn't toasted. While still hot, "stick" the cheesy, non-crispy tortilla to the outside of a fried tortilla shell. Repeat with the remaining tortilla, cheese and fried shell.
  • Now build! Fill the cavity of the taco with some warm Taco Meat, followed by some lettuce, a drizzle of sour cream, tomatoes, jalapeños and cilantro.
  • Serve with your favorite taco bib.
  • Heat a pan over medium heat. Add the beef and chorizo and brown, breaking the meat up constantly into smaller little bits, until no longer pink, 6 to 8 minutes. (If there is a lot of rendered fat, remove all but 1 tablespoon of the fat.)
  • Add the onions, chipotle powder and cumin. Cook until the onions are soft, another 8 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for just another 30 seconds. Add the tomato puree and simmer, stirring frequently, for another 10 minutes. You want this taco meat to be pretty "tight" and dehydrated, not soupy or loose! Season to taste with salt and pepper.

DOUBLE DECKER TACOS

Soft taco on the outside, crispy taco on the inside. These are easier to eat than a regular taco. The soft taco keeps everything together. It's a very filling taco. My kids LOVE these tacos!

Categories     Beans

Time 1h

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

10 taco shells (Old El Paso has a box of 10 taco shells that are flat on the bottom called "Stand n' Stuff".)
10 small flour tortillas, snack size (Casa Valdez makes this size)
1 lb ground beef
1 (1 1/4 ounce) packet taco seasoning
2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded
2 cups lettuce, shredded
1 (16 ounce) can refried beans or 2 cups homemade refried beans
salsa

Steps:

  • Brown ground beef.
  • Drain.
  • Add taco seasoning according to packet directions.
  • While beef is simmering put refried beans in a small sauce pan to warm over low heat. May need to add 1-2 tablespoons of water to the beans to thin them out a bit.
  • Warm soft tortillas in a dry skillet over low to medium heat. You don't want to brown or crisp them at all. Just warm them on both sides so that they are pliable.
  • Keep tortillas warm in foil. These can be placed in a warm oven if needed.
  • Assemble the tacos:.
  • Spread warm beans on a warm flour tortilla (Like spreading pizza sauce on pizza dough).
  • Sprinkle beans with shredded cheese.
  • Stand a taco shell in the center of tortilla spread with beans and cheese.
  • Gently press the soft tortilla onto the sides of the taco shell.
  • Fill taco shell with beef, more shredded cheese, shredded lettuce and salsa.
  • *variation* if you prefer not to use refried beans just use all cheese to "glue the soft tortilla to the taco shell. If you choose this option just cover the tortilla with a layer of shredded cheese while warming in skillet. As soon as the cheese is melted remove from skillet and place your taco shell in the middle, quickly folding up the sides so they stick to the taco shell. Fill taco and enjoy!

DOUBLE TACOS



Double Tacos image

Crunchy and soft tacos make a great couple. The soft taco, layered with a mixture of refried beans and cheese, act as a cushion to keep the crunchy taco shell, filled with taco meat and toppings, from breaking. It's fun for kids and adults, too! This recipe is versatile and toppings are a matter of preference. We prefer shredded cheese, sour cream, lettuce, hot sauce, and sometimes guacamole. Enjoy!

Time 30m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 ¼ pounds ground beef
½ onion, chopped
1 (1.25 ounce) package dry taco seasoning mix
¾ cup water
1 (14 ounce) can refried beans
4 ounces processed cheese food, cubed
10 (6 inch) flour tortillas, warmed
10 crisp taco shells, warmed

Steps:

  • Cook ground beef and onion in a skillet over medium heat until beef is completely browned, 7 to 10 minutes. Drain excess grease from the skillet.
  • While beef cooks, stir taco seasoning mix into water in a small saucepan; bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, and simmer for 10 minutes.
  • Stir taco seasoning mixture into ground beef and onion mixture; simmer on medium-low heat while preparing the remaining ingredients.
  • Stir refried beans and cubed process cheese food together in a separate small saucepan over medium-low heat; cook and stir until cheese food has melted completely into the beans, about 10 minutes.
  • Divide refried bean mixture between flour tortillas; spread into an even layer to cover one side completely.
  • Wrap tortillas around the crisp taco shells, using bean mixture to stick the tortillas to the shells.
  • Spoon seasoned ground beef into the taco shells.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality ingredients for the best flavor and texture. Look for flavorful cheeses, such as cheddar or Monterey Jack, and fresh, firm vegetables. Use high-quality tortillas, either homemade or store-bought, and make sure they are warmed through before assembling the tacos.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the steak. Give the steak enough space to sear properly and develop a nice crust.
  • Cook the steak to your desired doneness. For medium-rare, cook the steak for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 135 degrees Fahrenheit. For medium, cook the steak for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 145 degrees Fahrenheit. For medium-well, cook the steak for about 5-6 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 155 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the steak rest for a few minutes before slicing it. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the steak, resulting in a more tender and flavorful bite.
  • Assemble the tacos just before serving to ensure that the tortillas stay crispy and the fillings stay warm.

Conclusion:

Double-decker steak breakfast tacos are a hearty and delicious way to start your day. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a variety of flavorful ingredients, these tacos are sure to please everyone at the table.
