Instructions
Brown the beef in a skillet over medium heat until fully cooked, then drain any excess fat.
Stir in your chosen spices, onion, and garlic, cooking until they're soft and fragrant.
Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave until pliable.
Spoon the beef mixture and cheese onto each tortilla, fold in the sides, and roll it up tightly.
For a crispy finish, sear the wrapped burritos seam-side down in a hot skillet for 1–2 minutes on each side.
Serve with your favorite toppings.
Notes
Tip: To prevent soggy burritos, be careful not to overfill and let the filling rest briefly before wrapping.
