Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb Ground beef
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 0.5 tsp Garlic powder
- 0.5 tsp Onion powder
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese
- 4 Flour tortillas (large, burrito-size)
- 1 cup Romaine lettuce
- 1 Tomato, diced
- 0.25 cup Pickles, chopped
- 0.25 cup Ketchup
- 2 tbsp Mustard
- 1 tbsp Vegetable oil
Instructions
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook for 7-10 minutes, breaking it apart with a spatula as it browns.
Season the beef with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Stir well to ensure the seasoning is evenly distributed.
Once fully browned and cooked through, remove the skillet from the heat and drain any excess grease. Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese while the beef is hot, allowing it to melt.
Warm the flour tortillas by heating them one at a time in a clean skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds per side, or microwave them in a stack between damp paper towels for 15-20 seconds.
Assemble the Burgeritos: Lay a warm tortilla flat on a work surface. Spoon 1/4 of the seasoned beef mixture onto the center of the tortilla.
Top the beef with romaine lettuce, diced tomato, chopped pickles, a drizzle of ketchup, and a dollop of mustard.
Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it tightly from the bottom to form a burrito shape.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a clean skillet over medium heat. Place the rolled Burgeritos seam-side down in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown and crisp.
Repeat with the remaining Burgeritos. Serve hot and enjoy!
