  • Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  • Add the diced potatoes to the skillet and season with salt and pepper.
  • Cook, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are golden brown and tender, about 15-20 minutes.

  • Add the cumin, paprika, chili powder, and additional salt and pepper to taste.
  • Stir to combine and cook for another 2-3 minutes to let the flavors meld together.
  1. Warm the Tortillas:
  • Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side or until they are pliable.
  • Alternatively, you can wrap them in a damp paper towel and microwave for 20-30 seconds.
  1. Assemble the Tacos:
