Step 1
Heat a 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks, until no pink remains, ~5 minutes.
Step 2
Stir in diced onion and cook 1 minute until fragrant. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a plate.
Step 3
Reduce heat to medium. Place a tortilla in the skillet and sprinkle 2 tbsp cheese directly on top.
Step 4
Spoon 2 tbsp cooked beef onto the cheese, then fold the tortilla in half. Cook without moving until the bottom is crispy and golden, ~2 minutes.
Step 5
Flip and cook the other side until cheese shows at the edges and tortilla is crispy, ~90 seconds.
Step 6
Transfer to a plate. Repeat with remaining tortillas, cheese, and beef.
Step 7
Top with cilantro and serve immediately with lime wedges for squeezing.
