Oaxacan Tacos image

I learned how to make these tacos while a man from Oaxaca, Mexico lived with my family. They are traditional Mexican tacos and one of the best things I know how to make. The steak may be broiled or grilled if you prefer.

These tacos were a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved them. I will definitely be making them again, but I'll use less chili powder next time.

I'm not a big fan of Oaxacan cheese, so I used cheddar cheese instead. The tacos were still delicious.

The only thing I would change about this recipe is to add a little more spice. I like my tacos to have a bit of a kick.

These tacos are a great way to use up leftover chicken or pork. They're also a great option for a quick and easy weeknight meal.

I wasn't sure about the idea of putting potatoes in tacos, but I was pleasantly surprised. They added a nice crunch and heartiness to the dish.

The Oaxacan cheese is a great addition to these tacos. It adds a nice gooey texture and flavor.

I love the smoky flavor of the roasted poblanos in these tacos. They're the perfect combination of spicy and savory.

These tacos were a hit at my Cinco de Mayo party! The flavors were amazing and the tortillas were perfectly cooked. I will definitely be making these again.
