Ingredients

FOR THE STEAK:

  • 1 ¼ teaspoon Kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon cumin
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • 1 pound ribeye, strip, or sirloin steak - ¾" thick
  • 3 tablespoons avocado or canola oil, separated
  • Juice of a lime

FILLING OPTIONS:

  • 4 burrito-sized flour tortillas, warmed
  • 1 large avocado, mashed
  • 1 cup pico de gallo
  • 1 (14-ounce) can chili pinto beans, warmed
  • 2 cups cooked Mexican rice
  • ⅔ cup freshly grated Monterey Jack cheese
  • ⅔ cup freshly grated Cheddar cheese

Instructions

COOK THE STEAK:

  • In a small bowl, combine Kosher salt, black pepper, cumin, garlic powder, and paprika. Set aside until ready to use.
  • On a work surface, pat away the excess moisture from the steak using a paper towel. Drizzle the steak with 1 tablespoon of oil and sprinkle with the seasoning mix. Rub the oil and seasoning all over the steak until coated.
  • Add 2 tablespoons of oil to a large frying pan over medium-high heat and allow to come to temperature. Sear for 5 without jostling or moving, turn and sear 5 minutes more.
  • Transfer the steak to a plate and set it aside to rest for 10 minutes. After the resting time is up, cut the steak into ½", bite-sized cubes and transfer to to a bowl. Squeeze the juice of a lime over the steak and toss.

ASSEMBLE THE BURRITOS:

  • Ready your desired toppings and lay your tortilla flat on your work surface.
  • Add the desired fillings to the center of the tortilla and fold over two opposite ends of the tortilla. Keeping those ends folded over, in place, bring one open of the open sides of the tortilla up and over the filling. Begin tucking and rolling until the filling is completely enclosed in the tortilla.
  • Wrap in a sheet of aluminum foil if transporting; otherwise, serve and enjoy!
