INGREDIENTS

  • Fry Bread Base

    • 2 cups all-purpose flour
    • 1 tablespoon baking powder
    • ½ teaspoon white sugar
    • 🧂 ½ teaspoon salt
    • 💧 1 ½ cups lukewarm water
    • 2 cups oil for frying, or as needed

  • Taco Filling

    • 🥩 1 pound ground beef
    • 1 (15 ounce) can kidney beans, drained
    • 1 (1.25 ounce) package chili seasoning mix

  • Toppings

    • 2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
    • 🥬 2 cups chopped iceberg lettuce
    • 🍅 2 tomatoes, chopped
    • 1 cup sour cream

STEPS

1

Whisk together flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt in a large bowl. Stir in water until a slightly sticky dough forms. Let it rest while preheating the oil.

2

Heat oil in a deep fryer or large saucepan to 375°F (190°C).

3

Divide the dough into 6 equal portions. Flatten each portion into a round disc about the size of your palm.

4

Fry each dough disc in the hot oil until browned on one side (about 2 minutes), flip with tongs and cook the other side (about 1 minute). Remove and drain on paper towels.

5

In a skillet over medium heat, cook and stir ground beef until browned and crumbly (5-7 minutes). Stir in kidney beans and chili seasoning; cook for an additional 5 minutes until heated through.

6

Place each fry bread on a plate. Top with the chili mixture, cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, and sour cream.

💡 Use a thermometer to ensure the oil stays at 375°F for perfect frying.Cutting the fry bread into small pieces before assembly makes it easier to eat, especially for picnics.For a vegetarian option, replace ground beef with meatless crumbles or additional beans.Leftover toppings can be used for salads the next day.
