Description
A delicious combination of seasoned ground beef and crispy roasted potatoes wrapped in a cheesy tortilla.
Ingredients
Scale
- 3 large russet potatoes, peeled and diced
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 0.5 cup water
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried cilantro
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 2 teaspoons chili powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 0.5 cup taco sauce
- 5 large flour tortillas
- 1 cup nacho cheese sauce
Instructions
- Chop up your potatoes into little cubes after peeling and washing. In a great big bowl, toss them with paprika, garlic powder, black pepper, salt, and then add the olive oil. Give it all a good mix.
- Toss the seasoned potatoes right into your air fryer basket. Crank up the setting to 400°F. Let them cook for about 25 minutes, take a moment a couple of times to shake the basket and make sure those cubes get crisp all over.
- Get your skillet nice and hot over medium-high heat. Throw in the ground beef and break it up as it cooks. Sprinkle in salt, black pepper, chili powder, cumin, dried cilantro, paprika, and minced garlic along the way. When it’s browned and no pink’s left, get rid of the extra fat. Splash in the water and let it bubble for a few minutes so everything blends in.
- Turn the burner down to the lowest setting and let the beef hang out in the pan. It’ll stay hot while your potatoes get nice and roasted.
- Lay out a tortilla on your counter. Smear some nacho cheese in the middle, drop in some beef, splash on a bit of taco sauce, pile on the crispy potatoes, and add more nacho cheese if that’s your thing. Tuck in the sides and roll it right up.
- Pop the rolled burritos, seam down, into a clean skillet over medium-high. Toast both sides a couple minutes each, flipping until they’re golden and heated all through.
Notes
- Feel free to customize the toppings with your favorite ingredients.
- For a spicier burrito, add jalapeños or hot sauce.
