If you like spicy food, sprinkle some chopped fresh jalapenos on top. 9. Add a dollop of sour cream and salsa on top of each taco. 10. Garnish each taco with a sprinkle of fresh cilantro and a lime wedge on the side. 11. Serve the tacos immediately, while the beef is still warm and the taco shells are still crisp.
