Method
Cheddar Shells
1
Place circles of shredded cheddar cheese onto a hot non-stick pan. Fry until the cheese is bubbling and the edges are golden brown. Gently lift each melted cheese circle with a spatula and drape it over a rolling pin or clean handle to cool and harden into a taco shell shape.
Meat Filling
2
Heat a cast-iron skillet on high heat. Add the ground beef and pork chorizo. Smash the meat down hard with a spatula to create a deep, caramelized sear on the flat top. Toss with chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, and sea salt, breaking it up into crispy, flavorful bits.
Cilantro Lime Cream
3
Stir the sour cream, lime juice, and chopped fresh cilantro together in a small bowl until smooth.
Plate
4
Fill the crispy cheddar shells with the smashed beef and chorizo mix. Drizzle the cilantro lime cream heavily over the top and serve immediately hot.
