How to Make Burritos

  1. Marinate: If using 1 lb steak or chicken breast, marinate in a ziplock bag with your favorite marinade overnight in the refrigerator.
  2. Prepare Rice: Cook 1 cup of parboiled rice according to package directions (approx. 20 minutes).
  3. Warm Beans: While rice cooks, warm 1 (15-ounce) can of your favorite beans.
  4. Cook Meat: If using 1 lb ground beef, brown it in a skillet and season with 1 packet of taco seasoning according to package directions. If using marinated steak or chicken, cut into bite-sized pieces and cook in a cast iron skillet over medium heat for 10 minutes, or until cooked through.
  5. Assemble Burritos: Warm tortillas in the microwave for 15-20 seconds. Fill each tortilla with ½ cup cooked rice, ½ cup beans, ½ cup cooked meat, 2 tablespoons salsa, and 1 tablespoon shredded cheese. Wrap tightly.
  6. Sear Burritos (Optional): Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a cast iron skillet over medium heat. Place burritos seam-down in the skillet and cook for 3 minutes per side, until lightly browned and heated through.
  7. Serve: Top with sour cream and enjoy!
