1 cup cooked white rice
04 -
1/2 cup sour cream

# How to Make It:
01 -
Brown ground beef in a skillet over medium heat until fully cooked, about 8 to 10 minutes. Drain any excess fat, then add taco seasoning and 1/4 cup water. Simmer for 5 minutes to incorporate flavors.
02 -
Heat each tortilla for a few seconds on a dry skillet or in the microwave until soft and pliable.
03 -
Lay a tortilla flat. Evenly layer with 1/4 cup cooked rice, seasoned beef, 2 tablespoons nacho cheese sauce, 1 tablespoon chipotle sauce, and 2 tablespoons sour cream. Top with 1/4 cup shredded cheddar and 1/4 cup mozzarella cheese.
04 -
Fold in the sides and roll the tortilla tightly around the filling to form a sealed burrito.
05 -
Heat a clean skillet over medium heat. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons shredded cheese where the seam of the burrito will sit. Place the burrito seam-side down and press gently. Cook until the cheese melts and browns, about 3 to 4 minutes. Flip and repeat on the other side until golden and crisp.
# Extra Information:
01 -
For optimal texture, assemble and grill burritos just before serving. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
02 -
For reheating, use a skillet to regain a crisp exterior or warm in the microwave for 60 to 90 seconds.
03 -
Customize with black beans, jalapeños, or cooked chicken as desired. Substitute with dairy-free cheese to adapt for vegan diets.
