    Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

  2. 2

    Add the sliced yellow onion and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5-6 minutes until softened and beginning to brown.

    Približno 6 min

    Kuharjeva opomba: Don't rush this step; well-cooked onions provide a sweet flavor base.

  3. 3

    Stir in the minced garlic and optional serrano pepper, and cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

    Približno 1 min

  4. 4

    Add the diced roma tomatoes and dried oregano. Cook for 3-4 minutes, breaking up the tomatoes with your spoon until they form a chunky sauce.

    Add the cooked shredded beef to the skillet, breaking it up and mixing it thoroughly with the vegetables.

    Približno 2 min

  6. 6

    Spread the beef mixture into an even layer and cook without stirring for 3-4 minutes to allow the bottom to become brown and crispy.
