2 Tablespoons Oil
1 Onion finely chopped
1 lb. Lean Ground Beef 80-90%
1 1/2 Tablespoons Chili Powder
1/2 teaspoon Garlic Powder
1 teaspoon Cumin
1 teaspoon Salt
1 teaspoon Pepper
2 Tablespoons Tomato Paste
2 teaspoons Brown Sugar
1/2 cup Water
Toppings:
1 - 16 ounce can Spicy Jalapeno Refried Beans if you can't find spicy jalapeno, add diced jalapenos to traditional refried beans
4-5 cups Mexican Cheese shredded
1 cup Sour Cream or Mexican Crema
1-2 Avocados sliced
1 Jalapeno sliced (or jarred jalapeno slices)
Homemade Restaurant Style Salsa Recipe
1 Large Bag Tortilla Chips
Heat oil in large skillet over medium heat. Cook until until softened, about 4-5 minutes. Add ground beef and cook, breaking meat into small pieces until no longer pink -- about 5 minutes. Add chili powder, garlic powder, cumin, salt, and pepper and stir to coat. Add tomato paste, brown sugar, and water and cook for 6-8 minutes longer. Transfer to plate lined with paper towels to soak up grease. Heat oven to low broil. Place refried beans in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in microwave for 1 minute or until nice and warm and easy to stir. If desired, stir in chopped jarred jalapenos. Line large baking sheet with tortilla chips. Top chips with warmed refried beans and spicy beef. Top with cheese. Broil for 2-4 minutes, or until cheese is melted, keeping a close eye on it. Top with sour cream, avocados, jalapenos, and salsa. Serve immediately.
