BEEF AND BEAN BURRITO SKILLET DINNER

Category: Ground

2 tbsp olive oil
1/2 of a large onion, chopped
2 tbsp chopped jalapeno
1 lb ground beef
1 tsp kosher salt
8 turns of the pepper grinder
1 tbsp chili powder
1/2 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp Cajun seasoning, optional
1/2 tsp oregano
1 packet of Sazon seasoning, optional
1 cup beef stock
1 cup lime and garlic salsa, or your favorite
1 (4 oz) can green chilies, undrained
1 can pinto beans
4 small flour tortillas, cut into small squares
1 cup shredded cheddar or Mexican style cheese
Sour cream
1 green onion, sliced
Optional garnishes: Shredded lettuce, chopped tomatoes, chopped avocados, or other toppings as desired

Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a medium skillet; add the onion and jalapeno; cook until onion is soft but not browned. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking up with a potato masher, until browned. Drain if needed.

Add the salt, pepper, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, Cajun seasoning, oregano, and Sazon. Stir together and continue cooking for about 1 minute. Add the beef stock and stir. Add the salsa, green chilies and pinto beans; stir and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and let simmer until thickened and reduced, about 15 minutes.

Stir in the pieces of tortillas and sprinkle cheese on top. Cover and let stand for 5 minutes, or until cheese is melted. Sprinkle top with sliced green onion. Garnish individual servings with shredded lettuce, chopped tomato, avocado, sour cream or other burrito toppings as desired.
