Cooking Steps
- Peel, then cut onion into 1/2-inch pieces. (TIP: Do you like raw onions on your tacos? Set some aside before cooking the rest with chorizo in step 2.)
- Remove and discard outer layer of iceberg lettuce. Remove stem, cut half the lettuce into thin strips (use all the lettuce for 4 ppl).
- Core, then cut tomato into 1/2-inch pieces.
- Zest, then juice half the lime. Cut remaining lime into wedges.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
- When hot, add chorizo to the dry pan. Break chorizo into smaller pieces.
- Add onions. Season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are tender and chorizo is cooked through, 4-5 min.**
- Add tomato sauce base and Mexican Seasoning. Stir to combine.
- Add 1/3 cup (1/2 cup) water, then bring to a simmer.
- Cook, stirring often, until sauce thickens slightly, 1-2 min.
- Meanwhile, add sour cream, lime zest, 1 tsp (2 tsp) lime juice and 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) sugar to a small bowl.
- Season with salt and pepper, then stir to combine.
- Just before serving, wrap tortillas in paper towels.
- Microwave until pliable and warmed through, 30 sec-1 min.
- Divide tortillas between plates.
- Spread lime crema onto tortillas.
- Top with chorizo, tomatoes, lettuce, cheese, and raw onions, if desired.
- Squeeze a lime wedge over top, if desired.
If you've opted to get chorizo, cook it in the same way the recipe instructs you to cook the beef.**
