Chipotle Burrito

I made these burritos out of left overs: left over stew beef, left over rice, left over black beans, left over salsa…But these left overs got a pretty fancy make over. Yay for left overs that don’t taste like left overs any more.

 

 

 

Ingredients:

Chipotle Steak:

1 tsp oregano

1/2 tsp cumin

1/4 tsp garlic powder

1/4 tsp onion powder

1/4 tsp red pepper

pinch of salt and pepper

2 tsp vegetable oil

1 lb steak

Combine oregano, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, red pepper, salt, and pepper. Rub spice mixture over steak, along with vegetable oil. Refrigerate while preparing other ingredients.

Rice:

2 cups cooked rice

1 1/2 Tbsp lime juice

1 tsp vegetable oil

2 Tbsp cilantro or parsley

1/4 – 1/2 tsp salt

Drizzle lime juice and oil over the top of warm rice, sprinkle with 2 Tbsp cilantro and salt. Fluff with a fork.

Pico De Gallo:

4 roma tomatoes, cored and diced small

1 cup finely diced red onion

1 jalepeno, seeded and minced

2 Tbsp chopped cilantro

In a small bowl, combine the tomatoes, red onion, jalepeno, and cilantro.

Heat grill to medium-high. Coat grill with non-stick spray and cook steak about 4 min per side, or to your liking. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest for 5 min. Slice thinly against the grain

Warm tortillas and fill with rice, then steak. Top with black beans, pico de gallo, and sour cream. Roll and enjoy!
