Spicy Lamb Tacos

By Realtychick

Ingredients

• 3 cups thinly sliced cabbage (from 1 medium head)
• 1 bunch radishes, sliced into half-moons
• 1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds
• 1/4 cup cilantro leaves
• 3 tablespoons lime juice
• Salt
• 1 pound ground lamb
• 2 garlic cloves, chopped
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano
• 1 teaspoon ancho chile powder
• 1 tsp. chipotle chile powder
• 1/4 cup beer
• 1 teaspoon cider vinegar
• 8 warm corn tortillas
• Toppings such as crumbled queso fresco, crema, chopped cilantro, pickled jalapenos, and lime wedges for squeezing

Preparation

Step 1

Combine cabbage, radishes, cumin, cilantro, and lime juice in a large bowl. Add salt to taste and transfer to a serving bowl.

Sauté lamb, garlic, and oregano in a large frying pan over high heat, breaking up meat with a wooden spoon until very little pink remains, about 5 minutes. Drain excess fat. Add chile powders, beer, vinegar, and salt to taste and cook, stirring, until most liquid has evaporated, 2 to 3 minutes more. Transfer to a serving bowl.

Set out tortillas and toppings in separate bowls and let everyone make their own tacos.
