Doneness
The shells are crisp and golden and the cheese is melted. Soft, bendable shells need another minute; add cold toppings only after they come out.
Oil & seasoning
A light mist on the tortillas helps them crisp into shells.
Season with: chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, cheese, salsa.
Watch out for
- Stand the tacos upright so the shells crisp without spilling the filling.
- Use a fully cooked filling — the quick cook only crisps and melts.
- Add lettuce, salsa, and other fresh toppings after cooking, not before.
- Watch closely — thin shells crisp and then burn quickly.
