Method
 

Cooking Instructions
  1. In a large skillet, heat over medium heat and add the ground beef. Brown it for about 8–10 minutes until fully cooked, stirring frequently to break it up. Drain any excess grease, then sprinkle in your taco seasoning and a splash of water. Let it simmer for 5 minutes until well combined and fragrant.
  2. While the beef is simmering, take your flour tortillas and warm them up in a dry skillet for about 30 seconds on each side or in the microwave for about 15-20 seconds.
  3. Once the tortillas are warm, lay one flat, layer cooked rice, seasoned beef, nacho cheese sauce, chipotle sauce, sour cream, cheddar, and mozzarella cheese.
  4. Heat a clean skillet over medium heat and add a small amount of butter or oil. Place the assembled burrito seam-side down in the skillet and sprinkle some shredded cheese on top. Grill for 3–4 minutes until golden, flip, and repeat until cheese melts.
  5. Remove from the skillet, slice in half, and serve immediately with salsa or guacamole.
