Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces large flour tortillas
- 0.5 pound ground beef
- 0.5 pound chicken breast, diced
- 6 slices bacon
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cup sour cream
- 0.5 cup salsa
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 medium red bell pepper, diced
- 1 teaspoon cumin powder
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chopped onion and minced garlic, sauté until soft and fragrant, about 3 minutes.
Add ground beef to the skillet, cook until browned and fully cooked, breaking up the meat with a spoon, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat.
In a separate skillet, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove from skillet and crumble. Set aside.
In the same skillet with bacon grease, add diced chicken breast and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
Combine the cooked ground beef, chicken, and crumbled bacon in a large bowl. Add the cumin powder, chili powder, and a pinch more salt and pepper. Mix until well combined.
Divide the meat mixture among the four tortillas. Top each with a portion of diced red bell pepper, shredded cheddar cheese, a tablespoon of sour cream, and a tablespoon of salsa.
Fold in the sides of the tortilla and then roll it up tightly from the bottom to form a burrito.
In a clean skillet, heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Place the burritos seam side down and cook until golden brown and crispy on both sides, about 2-3 minutes per side.
Serve the burritos warm, with extra sour cream and salsa on the side if desired.
