Preparation Steps
- Begin by cubing the potatoes into uniform pieces, about 1 inch in size. Toss them in a bowl with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika until well-coated. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F and cook the potatoes for 20 minutes, shaking the basket every 5 minutes.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef and cook until browned, about 7-10 minutes. Add the diced onion, and continue cooking until softened, approximately 3-4 minutes. Drain excess fat, stir in minced garlic, chili powder, cumin, cilantro, oregano, salt, and pepper, simmer for 1-2 minutes.
- Fold in the prepared crispy potatoes into the beef mixture and keep it warm on low heat.
- In a medium bowl, combine diced tomatoes, onion, jalapeño, chopped cilantro, lime juice, salt, and pepper to make pico de gallo. Let sit for flavors to meld.
- Heat butter in the same skillet, place corn tortillas, add Monterey Jack cheese on each, fill with beef and potato mixture, and fry until golden brown on each side, about 2-3 minutes.
- Serve tacos warm, topped with pico de gallo and lime wedges.

Notes
For optimal freshness, assemble tacos right before serving. Store filling and tortillas separately to maintain crunchiness.
