I first had these tacos at a Mexican restaurant in Los Angeles. I was immediately hooked on the flavor, and I knew I had to recreate them at home. I experimented with different ingredients and proportions until I came up with this recipe. I've been making these tacos for years now, and they're always a hit with my family and friends.
