Ingredients
  

  • 12 street taco corn tortillas
  • 1/2 pound birria can be store-bought or click for recipe
  • 1 cup Oaxaca cheese or Mexican blend shredded
  • Cooking oil
  • Cilantro and green onions for serving
  • 1 lime cut into wedges

Instructions
 

  • You can use store-bought birria or make your own. If using store-bought, heat the birria and consomme until warm before starting to make the tacos.
  • Heat a small amount of oil on a flat griddle or pan. When hot, add the tortillas and heat for about 2 minutes. Brush or spray oil on the tortilla and flip it over.
  • Add birria to one side of the tortilla, along with a handful of cheese. Close the tortilla and press it shut with a spatula. Brush the tortilla with some consomme. Once it’s crispy on one side, flip it over, brush with more consomme, and let it crisp up.
  • Serve with cilantro and chopped onions.

Notes

  • Some grocery stores stock packaged birria in the meat section. You can also buy it at various restaurants.
  • It's not that difficult to make, but it will add about 45 minutes to 2 hours to your prep to make it.
