Our Head Chef Lule has all the secret hints and tips\u2026..<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">For our meat-loving foodies, Lule suggests using truly authentic ingredients such as chicharr\u00f3n (fried pork rinds) and cecina (beef jerky) as the main component in your tacos. He recommends marinating your shredded beef, pork or chicken in cumin, paprika, garlic, chilli powder, salt and freshly cracked pepper the night before for that FIESTA of flavour! Lule also loves to add some crunchy cabbage and smoky artichoke hearts for a perfectly MOREISH combination.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> For more of our Head Chef&#8217;s secrets, <span style=\"text-decoration: underline\"><a href=\"https:\/\/obi-cc.theloyaltyco.app\/blog\/five-minutes-with-o-beach-ibizas-head-chef\/\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;text-decoration: underline\">click here<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Calling our vivacious veggies, try a taco for breakfast &#8211; you\u2019ll find no judgement here, we\u2019d probably team it with a Mezcal Bloody Mary as well!
