Step-by-Step Instructions
1
Cook the ground beef in a large skillet over medium-high heat, breaking it up into small pieces as it cooks. Once browned, drain excess fat and add diced tomatoes, shredded cheese, and a sprinkle of cilantro. Stir to combine and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
2
Warm the flour tortillas by wrapping them in a damp paper towel and microwaving for 20-30 seconds. This will make them more pliable and easier to roll.
3
Assemble the chalupas by spooning the beef and cheese mixture onto a warmed tortilla, followed by a sprinkle of shredded lettuce and a dollop of sour cream. Roll the tortilla up tightly and place seam-side down on a baking sheet. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
4
Bake the chalupas in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 10-12 minutes, or until the tortillas are crispy and golden brown. Serve hot and enjoy!
