  1. 1

    In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned, breaking it apart with a spoon, about 5-6 minutes.

    Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes until softened.

  3. 3

    Stir in chili powder, cumin, paprika, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to coat the beef evenly with the spices.

  4. 4

    Pour in the tomato sauce and simmer for 5 minutes, letting the flavors meld and the sauce thicken slightly.

  5. 5

    Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave until soft and pliable.

  6. 6

    Spoon the beef mixture into each tortilla. Top with lettuce, tomatoes, shredded cheese, cilantro, and a dollop of sour cream.
