Ingredients
Method
- Cook the 1 lb ground beef in a skillet over medium-high heat for 7 to 8 minutes, drain excess fat, then stir in the 1 tsp chili powder, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp onion powder, ½ tsp cumin, and ½ tsp salt and cook 30 seconds more.
- Lay out a 10-inch tortilla and layer 1 tbsp chipotle sauce, 2 tbsp nacho cheese sauce, one-quarter of the beef, ¼ cup rice, 2 tbsp three-cheese blend, 2 tbsp sour cream, and a handful of lettuce in the center, then fold tightly into a burrito. Repeat with the remaining 3 tortillas.
- Melt ½ tbsp butter in the wiped-out skillet over medium heat, spread 2 tbsp shredded three-cheese blend in the pan, wait 30 seconds, then place a burrito seam-side down on the cheese. Press gently and cook 2 to 3 minutes until the crust is golden and releases cleanly, flip, and cook 1 to 2 minutes more. Repeat for each burrito.
- Plate each burrito with the cheese crust facing up and serve immediately with extra chipotle sauce on the side.
Notes
Warm your tortillas before assembling or they will crack when you fold them. The cheese needs to go into the pan before the burrito so it has time to set into a crust. These are best eaten right off the pan; the crust softens quickly as they sit.
