Korean Fusion Taco Meat
A spicy tangy taco burrito mix that works with any kind of ground meat. It's packed with flavor, so you only need a bit. Also works great for nachos and quesadillas.
I have also used leftovers as a great base for a shepherds pie.
Tools
- A large frying pan
Ingredients
- Your ground meat of choice, I have made this with beef, pork, sausage, and turkey
- 1 heaping tablespoon of Korean Gochujang paste
- 1 tablespoon of low sodium soy sauce
- 1 1/2 teaspoon ground chipotle chili pepper powder. The spicy smoky kind.
- 2 teaspoons adobo spice mix or tex-mex spice mix.
- A teaspoon of chopped garlic
- A splash of balsamic vinegar
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Fry the meat with salt and pepper.
- Don't turn it over at the start, let it get nice and crispy on once side before mixing it up.
- Add the spices and soy sauce and mix until the meat is completely cooked.
- Add the gochujang paste and mix thouroughly, it will immediately stick to the pan and become sticky.
- Turn off the heat, deglaze with the balsamic vinegar and serve.
Pairs well with Quick Pickled Red Onions
Variants
- I will sometimes add a can of black beans, with most of the liquid drained right before adding the gochujang.
