- 12 ounces chile-seasoned beef jerky
- 8 (5 1/2-inch) crispy yellow corn tortilla shells (page 17), for serving
- Garnish: Shredded green cabbage, pickled onions (page 146), and lime wedges
- Place the jerky strips in a steamer or a colander set over gently simmering water.
- Cover and steam the jerky until very soft and moist, about 20 minutes.
- Remove from the heat, shred the jerky into long, thin strips along the grain, and serve right away.
- To serve, divide the cabbage and filling equally between the crispy shells, top with salsa and garnishes, and arrange in a taco holder.
- Or, lean the filled shells in a row, propped upright, on a platter.
- Eat right away.
