Main Ingredients
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 packet taco seasoning
  • 1 cup cooked white rice
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup nacho cheese sauce
  • 1/4 cup chipotle sauce
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella
  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • to taste Butter or oil for grilling

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Brown the ground beef in a skillet over medium heat for 8–10 minutes. Drain the excess grease, add taco seasoning and 1/4 cup of water, and simmer for 5 minutes.
  2. Heat tortillas on a dry skillet or in the microwave until they’re flexible.
  3. Lay a tortilla flat and layer with rice, seasoned beef, nacho cheese, chipotle sauce, and sour cream. Top with shredded cheddar and mozzarella.
Cooking
  1. Heat a clean skillet, sprinkle 2 tbsp of shredded cheese, place the burrito seam-side down, and cook until the cheese melts and forms a crispy crust, about 3–4 minutes per side.

Notes

Serve these hot, garnished with fresh cilantro and sour cream. They can be stored in the fridge for about 3 days or frozen for up to 3 months. Reheat in the oven or skillet to retain crispiness.
