Directions
1
In a bowl, combine the beef (or beef-lamb mix) with onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, cumin, oregano, salt, and pepper.
2
Mix thoroughly until the seasoning is evenly distributed throughout the meat.
3
Form small balls of the seasoned meat and place one on top of each tortilla.
4
Heat a skillet or griddle over medium-high heat, then place the tortillas (with the meat side down) onto the hot surface.
5
Cook for about 4–5 minutes, then flip and cook for another 2 minutes to crisp up the tortilla.
6
Transfer the tacos to a tray and broil under the grill for 2–3 minutes for an extra golden, crispy finish.
7
Spread a generous spoonful of tzatziki over each taco.
8
Top with diced tomatoes, crispy fries, sliced red onion, and fresh parsley.
9
Give each taco a squeeze of fresh lemon juice for that perfect tangy kick.
