Wash and dry all produce. Thinly slice @scallions{4%pieces}, separating whites from greens. Dice @tomato{1%pieces} into 1⁄4-inch pieces. Quarter @lime{1%pieces}.

Heat a drizzle of @olive oil{2%tbsp} in a #large pan{} over medium-high heat. Add scallion whites and tomato; cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, ~{2-3%minutes}. While veggies cook, in a #medium bowl{}, combine @shredded red cabbage{2%cups}, @water{1%tbsp}, @sugar{¾%tsp}, @salt{½%tsp}, and juice from half the lime. Cover with plastic wrap and microwave for ~{45%seconds}. Taste and season with salt and @black pepper{1%pinch} if desired. Set aside to pickle, tossing occasionally, until ready to serve.

Add @ground beef{16%oz} to pan with veggies; season with @fajita spice blend{2%tsp}, salt, and pepper. Cook, breaking up meat into pieces, until browned and cooked through, ~{3-4%minutes} (carefully pour out any excess grease). Add @chicken stock concentrate{1%unit} and water. Cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened and saucy, ~{1-3%minutes} more.

In a second #medium bowl{}, combine @queso blanco{4%oz} and water. Cover with plastic wrap and microwave until warmed through, ~{30-45%seconds}. Stir queso blanco halfway through for even heating. Wrap @flour tortillas{4%pieces} in damp paper towels and microwave until warm and pliable, ~{30%seconds}. Divide tortillas between plates; fill with pickled cabbage (draining first), saucy beef, and queso blanco. Garnish with scallion greens and serve with remaining lime wedges on the side.
