Method
- Preheat the oven to 425°F. Lightly oil or spray 2 baking sheets with nonstick spray.
- Heat 1 Tbsp. oil in a medium sized skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook until no longer pink; drain the excess fat.
- Return to the burner and add the taco seasoning, water, garlic, lime juice, diced green chiles, salt, and pepper. Cook until most of the moisture has evaporated, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in 1 cup of shredded cheese and mix until combined. Turn off the burner and remove from heat.
- Wrap the tortillas in a slightly damp paper towel and microwave for 45-60 seconds, flipping them halfway through. If the tortillas aren’t pliable, microwave again for about 10 seconds.
- On one half of each tortilla, spread about ¼ cup of the beef mixture and top with a little shredded cheese. Fold the tortilla over to seal, and lightly brush the top with a little more oil. Repeat with the remaining filling and tortillas.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes or until hot and crispy.
- While the tacos are baking, make the chipotle crema by blending all crema ingredients in a food processor until smooth. Adjust seasoning to taste.
- Serve the tacos with your favorite toppings and the crema.
