Instructions

1- Prepare the Beef:

In a skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef until browned. Drain excess fat.
Add minced garlic to the beef and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Stir in the tomato paste, taco seasoning, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and adobo seasoning. Mix well to coat the beef evenly.
Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld. Remove from heat and set aside.

2- Make the Cheese Sauce:

In a saucepan, heat a drizzle of oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and sauté until translucent.
Add the minced garlic and sauté for another 1 minute.
Stir in the flour, cooking for about 1 minute to eliminate the raw flour taste.
Gradually whisk in the heavy cream, ensuring a smooth mixture with no lumps.
Add the green chilies and grated cheese, stirring continuously until the cheese is melted and the sauce thickens. Remove from heat.

3- Assemble the Tacos:

Warm the flatbreads in a pan or oven as per package instructions.
Spoon a generous amount of the seasoned beef onto each flatbread.
Drizzle the cheese sauce over the beef.
Garnish with fresh cilantro and sliced Serrano peppers, if using.

4- Serve and Enjoy:

Serve the flatbread tacos immediately while warm. Enjoy with your favorite salsa or guacamole for added flavor.
