Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces large flour tortillas
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 packet taco seasoning
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup cooked white rice
- 1 cup black beans
- 0.5 cup sour cream
- 0.5 cup salsa
- 2 tbsp olive oil
Instructions
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the ground beef. Cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until browned and fully cooked, about 7-8 minutes.
Drain any excess grease from the skillet and stir in the taco seasoning and 1/4 cup of water. Simmer for 2-3 minutes until the seasoning is well combined with the meat. Remove from heat.
Warm the tortillas in the microwave for 20-30 seconds to make them pliable.
Lay each tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread 2 tablespoons of sour cream in the center of each tortilla.
Add 1/4 cup of cooked rice, 1/4 cup of black beans, and a generous amount of seasoned ground beef on top of the sour cream. Sprinkle with 1/4 cup of shredded cheddar cheese and add 2 tablespoons of salsa.
To fold the burrito, start by folding the sides inwards, then fold the bottom edge up over the filling, and roll tightly to seal.
Brush the outside of each burrito lightly with olive oil.
Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Place the burritos seam side down in the skillet and toast for 2-3 minutes until golden and crispy. Flip and toast the other side for another 2-3 minutes.
Remove from the skillet and let cool for 1-2 minutes. Slice in half if desired and serve warm with additional salsa or sour cream on the side.
