Heat a large skillet over medium high heat, add a drizzle of oil followed by the diced onion, garlic and ground beef. Break up with a wood spoon and cook until most of the pink is cooked out of the beef.
Add the taco seasoning, salsa and 1/4 cup of water. Simmer until most of the liquid has evaporated, remove from heat. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
