Ingredients
Scale
Steak
- 1 lb ribeye or sirloin, sliced into thin strips
Cheese
- 8 oz provolone or mozzarella, shredded
Vegetables
- 1 bell pepper, sliced
- 1 onion, sliced
Tortillas
- 4 flour tortillas
Butter
- 2 tablespoons butter
Instructions
- Prepare the Ingredients: Start by slicing the steak, bell peppers, and onions into thin strips. This will ensure everything cooks evenly and fits nicely inside your burrito.
- Cook the Steak: In a skillet over medium-high heat, add a drizzle of oil and cook the steak for about 3-4 minutes, or until browned and cooked to your liking. Remove the steak from the pan and set it aside.
- Sauté the Vegetables: In the same skillet, add the onions and bell peppers. Sauté for around 5-6 minutes, or until the vegetables are soft and slightly caramelized.
- Combine Ingredients: Add the cooked steak back into the skillet with the sautéed vegetables. Sprinkle in your cheese of choice and stir until melted and everything is well combined.
- Assemble the Burrito: Lay a tortilla flat and spoon the steak and cheese mixture in the center. Fold in the sides and roll it up tightly to form a burrito.
- Grill the Burrito: Heat a little butter in the skillet over medium heat. Place the burrito seam side down in the pan and grill for about 2-3 minutes on each side, until golden brown and crispy.
Notes
- Use High-Quality Meat: Fresh, high-quality steak will elevate the flavors significantly.
- Don’t Overstuff: Keep the fillings moderate to ensure the burrito closes properly.
- Let It Rest: Allow the burrito to cool for a minute before cutting, which helps the cheese set a bit.
- Experiment with Spices: Adding garlic powder or Italian seasoning can enhance the flavor profile.
- Serve with Dipping Sauces: A side of marinara or spicy ranch can take your burrito experience to the next level.
