TACO BELL CHALUPA SUPREME

TACO BELL CHALUPA SUPREME


1 lb. ground beef
¼ cup flour
1 Tbsp. chili powder
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. paprika
1 Tbsp. dried minced onion
½ cup water
Flat bread (pita will work)
Oil for deep-frying
Sour cream
Shredded lettuce
Shredded Cheddar/Jack cheese
Diced tomatoes


Mix dried onion with water in a small bowl and let stand for 5 minutes. Combine ground beef, flour, chili powder, paprika, and salt. Mix well. Add onions and water. Mix again.

In a skillet, cook beef mixture until browned. Stir often, while cooking so no large chunks form; it should be more like a paste. Remove from heat and keep warm.

In a deep fryer (or you can use a skillet) deep-fry the bread for 30 seconds. Let drain on absorbent towels.

Build Chalupas starting with meat, then sour cream, lettuce, cheese, and tomatoes in that order. Top with hot sauce or salsa if desired.
