So, I just made some pretty damn tasty tacos for food today, they were just out of the box but what made them really good was I just piled on veggies, which were diced fresh jalapenos, diced red onion, tomato, and avocado, I mean really piled em on. I'm starting to think tacos are more of a simplicity oriented food. But I want to make these tacos again but more legit, authentic I guess, not out of the box. What kind of meats, spices, tortillas, veggies and herbs and sauces should I use and make to get legit and awesome, simple tacos?

Also you can post your own personal "perfect taco" ingredients, doesn't have to be simple, just specify that you aren't responding to my first question.

Mexican street tacos is the name of the game. Soft corn tortillas, lingua, carnitas, camarones, pescado, barbacoa, chorizo, asada, whatever. If you want authentic, learn to make the meats first, then add in veggies and salsas that go with it. You're right, simplicity is the name of the game. Personally, I love cilantro-lime shrimp, and it works well with a mango-lime salsa for a bright, fresh, fruity, sweet-and-sour taste.

Not at all authentic tacos but I'm doing low carb. The beef was really, really good I just used s+p, a can of chopped tomatoes and a packet of a fancier taco mix that was all herbs and spices and no random crap. Then I added jalapenos, black olives, sour cream, cherry tomatoes and mozzarella and wrapped it in cos lettuce. It's kinda messy to eat so you could just julienne the lettuce and eat it in a bowl if you don't want to get your hands dirty.

I'm gonna share with you a family secret recipe that you can only eat if you don't have high blood pressure or other pre-existing heart condition. This salty fucking taco will be the best god damn taco you've ever had in your life.

>start by browning about 1 to 1.5lbs of ground beef
>drain 85% of the fat
>pour an entire bottle of La Victoria Red Taco sauce into the pan
>add a bit of water, make it almost a soupy mix
>add a shit and a fuck to of Lawry's brand garlic salt
>set on low heat and let simmer for a looong time
>the water, sauce, and fats will start to cook down and all the flavor will absorb into the meat
>stir the meat about once ever 20-30 minutes and add a bit more garlic salt
>remove from heat when everything has cooked down
>deep fry corn tortilla taco shells
>add Parmesan cheese and garlic salt in generous amounts to taco shell while its still hot
>serve taco with nothing but lettuce and tomato

Best fucking taco you'll EVER have.

Carne asada, street taco style, is stupid simple. Marinade flank in a salt, orange juice, lime juice, garlic, salt, cilantro and chili pepper. Grill or cook in iron skillet over high heat, chop it up and serve with tomatillo sauce or pico, onion and fresh peppers (pickled or not), and queso in a homemade corn tortilla. When you cook the meat it literally smells like a street taco stand -ucking goat!
