Minitacos Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 425 degrees F. Press the wonton wrappers into 24 (1 1/2-inch) mini muffin-pan cups.
• Cook the beef in a 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat until it's well browned, stirring often to break up the meat. Pour off any fat. Stir in the taco seasoning mix and picante sauce.
• Spoon the beef mixture into the wonton cups. Top with the salsa and cheese.
• Bake for 5 minutes or until the wontons are golden brown and the cheese is melted.
• Garnish with sour cream and olives, if desired. Serve immediately with additional salsa.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375˚F (190˚C).
• Generously brush butter onto both sides of the tortillas.
• Using a circular cookie cutter or a mason jar lid, cut the tortillas into small circles.
• Flip a 12-cup muffin tin over and place a cut-out piece of tortilla in the space between two cups, so that they make a mini taco shape. One muffin tin will fit 17 mini tacos.
• Bake for 5-8 minutes, or until just turning golden brown and crispy. (Times and temperatures may vary based on oven.) Make sure to check on them every couple of minutes to make sure they don't burn.
• Shred a rotisserie chicken, removing all bones and skin.
• Place shredded chicken in a large pan over medium-high heat and add salsa. Stir well to combine.
• Serve along with your favorite taco toppings.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Use a 3-inch round cookie cutter to cut 34 rounds from the tortillas.
• Microwave the butter, sugar and cinnamon in a medium microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring in between each, until the butter is melted. Brush both sides of the tortilla rounds with the butter mixture.
• Flip two 12-cup muffin tins upside down. Place the tortilla rounds in between the muffin cups in both directions, folding them to create mini taco shells (you should get 17 per muffin tin). Bake until the shells are crisp and just beginning to turn light golden brown, 11 to 13 minutes.
• Carefully overstuff each shell with mini marshmallows while they are still warm and in the muffin tins. Using a kitchen blowtorch, toast the marshmallows until golden brown all over. Stuff 1 milk chocolate rectangle on top of the marshmallows on each taco, pushing it down so the warm marshmallows melt the chocolate. Let sit until partially melted, about 5 minutes, then use the kitchen blowtorch to melt the chocolate completely.
• Put the remaining chocolate in a small microwave-safe bowl and microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between each, until melted, about 1 minute.
• Transfer the tacos to a serving platter, sprinkle with the graham cracker crumbs and serve warm alongside the melted chocolate for dipping.

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir ground beef in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and discard grease. Stir in water and taco seasoning mix. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and let simmer, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes.
• Lay scoop-style tortilla chips out on a microwave-safe plate, and spoon in the prepared beef, working in batches as needed. Sprinkle Cheddar cheese on top and microwave until the cheese on top is completely melted, about 1 minute. It will be hot so don't eat it right away. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Salsa: Combine the tomato, onion, jalapeno, and cilantro in a bowl. Mix well and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Set aside.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Brush the chicken breast with olive oil and sprinkle generously with salt and pepper, to taste. Put the chicken on a small sheet pan and roast until fully cooked through, about 25 minutes. Remove the chicken from the oven and allow it to cool before shredding.
• In a medium shallow skillet heat enough vegetable oil to come half way up the sides of the pan. Shred the chicken into small pieces and put about 2 tablespoons down the center of each corn tortilla. Roll up each tortilla like a cigar and secure them with a toothpick. Fry the tacos until golden brown on all sides, turning once, about 4 minutes total. Remove the toothpicks and cut each taco in half.
• To serve: Top with shredded lettuce and freshly made salsa. Drizzle with Mexican crema and sprinkle with crumbled queso fresco.

Steps:

• Cook hamburger until browned.
• Drain the fat and stir in taco mix and 1/2 cup salsa/picante sauce.
• Simmer for 3-5 minutes.
• Press wonton wrappers into mini muffin cups.
• Spoon beef mixture in cups and top with the 3 tbsp of salsa and cheese, evenly divided.
• Bake in preheated 425°F oven for 8 minutes, or until the wontons are nicely browned.
• Serve with extra salsa, sour cream, olives and guacamole if desired.
• ENJOY!
