Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Flour tortillas
- 1 pound Ground beef
- 2 tablespoons Taco seasoning
- 1 cup Refried beans
- 1 cup Red enchilada sauce
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 2 stalks Green onions, sliced
- 1 tablespoon Cooking oil
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of cooking oil over medium heat.
Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook, breaking it apart into crumbles, until fully browned, about 6-8 minutes.
Stir in taco seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Add 2 tablespoons of water to help incorporate the seasoning throughout the beef. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, then remove from heat.
Warm the flour tortillas briefly in the microwave, about 10-15 seconds, to make them pliable.
Lay each tortilla flat and spread 2-3 tablespoons of refried beans down the center of each tortilla.
Top the beans with 3-4 tablespoons of the seasoned ground beef and a sprinkle of shredded cheddar cheese.
Roll the tortillas tightly like a burrito, tucking in the sides as you go. Place the rolled tortillas seam-side down in a microwave-safe dish.
Pour the red enchilada sauce evenly over the top of the enchiritos, ensuring each one is fully coated.
Sprinkle the remaining shredded cheddar cheese over the top of the enchiritos.
Cover the dish loosely with a microwave-safe lid or plastic wrap. Microwave on high for 3-5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbling.
Carefully remove the dish from the microwave. Let cool for 2 minutes before serving.
Garnish the enchiritos with sour cream and a sprinkle of green onions before serving.
