Steak Potato Tacos! I know you’ve been to Taco Bell lately, face it we all have its the best fastest Mexican food chain out there and they’re literally everywhere. If you haven’t been there lately then you should know they offer a cheesy potato burrito which is amazing. It was also the reason why I decided to put potatoes in my Tacos on the one night we actually made them ourselves. I can attest that potatoes and steak go quite well together on tacos. Who would have thought? Not you since you’re reading the recipe to make steak and potato tacos!
But seriously, try these tacos out! I recommend adding a little flavor to your taco shell also. We lightly fry our shells in oil and then quickly dip them in a bowl of parmesan cheese for a wonderfully crunch and savory shell.
Steak Potato Tacos | Fridge Recipe
If you’re not interested in frying your taco shells in oil you do have an alternative, though I haven’t tried this method with any parmesan (im sure you chould still coat the shells)
There is a Baked Taco Rack that you can use to not only form the shells but bake them so they are light and flaky, like you’d have at taco bell. But like I’ve made in the picture the oil method is the balance between baking and soft shelled tacos.
