Ingredients
- 1 pound lean ground beef
- 1 small yellow onion finely chopped
- 1/2 cup tomato sauce
- 3 tablespoons water
- 1 1/2 teaspoons chili powder
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 3/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the lean ground beef and onion; cook until the meat is browned and crumbled, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat.
- Return the beef and onions to the skillet. Stir in the tomato sauce, water, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes so the flavors meld.
- Remove from heat and serve warm. Use the taco meat for tacos, burritos, or your favorite Mexican dish.
