For the beef
- 1 lb ground beef (80/20)
- 1 tbsp chili powder
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp onion powder
- ½ tsp dried oregano

For serving
- 8 small corn tortillas
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup shredded iceberg lettuce

Instructions
- 1
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon, until no pink remains and the meat is browned in spots, about 7–8 minutes. Drain off excess fat, leaving about 1 tablespoon in the pan.

Reduce the heat to medium. Add the chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper to the beef. Stir to coat evenly and cook until the spices are fragrant, about 1 minute.
