Street-style crispy cheese tacos loaded with spicy shredded beef, heavy on flavor and completely carb-free. Served with a quick garlic crema, this is messy, high-energy food truck fare designed to keep blood sugar completely flat.
Ingredients
2 servings
Shredded Beef
Beef Chuck Roast400 g
Beef Broth250 ml
Chipotle Peppers in Adobo Sauce20 g
Ground Cumin1 tsp
Garlic Powder1 tsp
Salt1 tsp
Cheese Shells
Cheddar Cheese150 g
Monterey Jack Cheese150 g
Garlic Crema
Sour Cream100 g
Lime Juice1 tbsp
Garlic Powder0.5 tsp
Method
Shredded Beef
1
Combine the beef chuck roast, beef broth, chipotle peppers, cumin, garlic powder, and salt in a pot. Cover and simmer on low heat for 2 hours until the beef is extremely tender and falls apart. Shred the meat with two forks directly into the remaining spicy pan juices.
Garlic Crema
2
Whisk together the sour cream, lime juice, and garlic powder in a small bowl until smooth. Set aside.
Cheese Shells
3
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Place a thin, flat circular mound of combined Cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese in the pan. Let it melt, bubble, and form a golden-brown crust on the bottom, which takes about 3 to 4 minutes. Carefully lift the cheese disc with a spatula and drape it over a suspended wooden spoon handle or rolling pin to cool into a hard, curved taco shell shape. Repeat to make four shells total.
Plate
4
Fill each crispy cheese taco shell generously with the hot shredded chipotle beef and drizzle with the garlic crema. Serve immediately while warm and crispy.
