With just a pound of ground beef and a few pantry staples, you can pull together a satisfying burrito skillet dinner in just thirty minutes. Taco seasoning mix, a jar of salsa and a can of black beans will help you create a home-cooked meal that rivals your favorite taqueria.
Ingredients:
1/4 cup sliced green onions
1/2 cup sour cream
1 lb ground beef (at least 80% lean)
1 cup water
1 cup Old El Paso™ Thick 'n Chunky salsa
1 can (15 oz) Progresso™ black beans, drained, rinsed
1 package (1 oz) Old El Paso™ original taco seasoning mix
4 (6-inch) Old El Paso™ flour tortillas for soft tacos and fajitas, cut in 1-inch strips
1 cup shredded Mexican cheese blend (4 oz)
Instructions:
- First, In 12-inch skillet, cook beef over medium heat 8 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until no longer pink; drain. Add water, salsa, beans and taco seasoning mix. Cook 3 to 5 minutes or until sauce thickens. Reduce heat to low.
- Stir in tortilla strips; cook 1 minute. Top with cheese; cover, and remove skillet from heat. Let stand 3 to 5 minutes or until cheese is melted.
- Top with green onions. Serve with sour cream.
Notes:
Flour tortillas have a sturdier texture than corn tortillas so are used to make stuffed burritos—and make sense in this deconstructed burrito skillet.
Create a small condiment bar to serve alongside: in addition to the green onions and sour cream, set out small bowls of chopped avocado, fresh tomato salsa or pico de gallo, and fresh sprigs of fresh cilantro.
Serve a salad of orange segments and sliced radishes tossed with watercress or torn butter lettuce, dressed with a tangy vinaigrette.
