Instructions

  • Begin by peeling and cutting the potatoes into cubes.  Season them with salt, 1 tablespoon black pepper, half the garlic powder, half the onion powder and Cajun seasoning. Drizzle 2 tablespoons oil on top and mix well to ensure even coating.  Air fry the seasoned potatoes at 400°F for 15-20 minutes, or until they are golden and crispy.
  • While the potatoes are cooking, heat 1 tablespoon oil in an oven-safe skillet and add the ground beef. Sauté for 2-3 minutes on medium heat until it is no longer pink.  Add the garlic and onions to the skillet and cook for an additional 2 minutes, until they become fragrant.
  • Stir in the Red Gold Original Diced Tomatoes + Green Chilies and Red Gold Roasted Garlic Tomato Paste.
  • Season the mixture with salt, 1 1/2 teaspoons black pepper, the remaining onion powder and garlic powder, red chili flakes and taco seasoning.  Mix well to combine all the flavors.
  • Once the beef is fully cooked, add the crispy potatoes to the skillet and mix them into the beef mixture. Top the skillet with mozzarella and cheddar cheese.
  • Bake the skillet in a preheated oven at 350°F for 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Garnish the finished dish with fresh parsley.
  • Serve the Mexican Taco Skillet with pico de gallo, tortilla chips and sour cream on the side for a complete meal.
