5 Minute Wet Beef and Green Chile Burritos
This recipe delivers a satisfying Mexican-style meal in a remarkably short time. Canned roast beef is combined with green chillies and spices to create a rich, saucy filling. The burritos are assembled with warm refried beans and cheese, then topped with more sauce and a cool dollop of sour cream for a complete, quick dinner that's full of flavour.
Ingredients
- 1 (12 ounce) can roast beef in gravy
- 1 (7 ounce) can diced green chilies
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/4 cup beef broth
- 2 teaspoons Wondra Flour
- 1 (15 ounce) can refried beans
- 1 cup shredded monterey jack pepper cheese
- 4 flour tortillas
- 4 tablespoons sour cream
Method
- Put the canned roast beef into a saucepan and use a fork to break it apart.
- Stir in the diced green chillies, garlic powder, chili powder, ground cumin, beef broth and Wondra Flour.
- Allow the mixture to come to a boil, then let it simmer for 2 minutes.
- Transfer the refried beans to a microwave-safe bowl, cover it with plastic wrap, and microwave for about 2 - 3 minutes until hot.
- Warm the flour tortillas individually over a gas flame, turning often, or use a griddle or frying pan, flipping once.
- Lay a heated tortilla flat and spoon a layer of refried beans onto it. Use a slotted spoon to add a portion of the beef mixture over the beans, then sprinkle with shredded cheese.
- Fold the two sides of the tortilla inward by about 2 inches. Begin rolling from the edge nearest to you, tucking the filling in as you roll away from yourself.
- Spoon some of the beef and green chile sauce over the assembled burrito and add more cheese. Finish with a spoonful of sour cream.
- Note: If there is a Costco near you, the Kirkland brand canned roast beef is very good.
