Delicious burritos filled with crispy potatoes, seasoned beef, and melted cheese, perfect for any meal.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 large russet potatoes, peeled and diced
- 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 ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 pound ground beef
- 0.5 cup taco sauce
- 5 large flour tortillas
- 1 cup nacho cheese sauce
Instructions
- Peel and wash the russet potatoes, then chop them into small cubes.
- In a large bowl, mix the potato cubes with paprika, garlic powder, black pepper, salt, and olive oil. Stir well to coat the potatoes.
- Place the seasoned potatoes in an air fryer basket and cook at 400°F for about 25 minutes, shaking the basket a couple of times while cooking.
- While the potatoes are cooking, heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add in the ground beef and break it apart as it cooks.
- Sprinkle in the salt, black pepper, chili powder, cumin, dried cilantro, paprika, and minced garlic. Cook until the beef is browned and no pink remains, then drain any excess fat.
- Add the water to the beef mixture and let it bubble for a few minutes to combine the flavors.
- Reduce the heat and keep the beef warm while the potatoes finish cooking.
- To assemble the burritos, lay a tortilla flat on your counter. Spread some nacho cheese in the center, add a scoop of beef, drizzle with taco sauce, pile on the crispy potatoes, and add more nacho cheese if desired.
- Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll it tight to make a burrito.
- Toast the rolled burritos seam-side down in a skillet over medium-high heat until golden and heated through.
Notes
Feel free to customize with additional toppings like lettuce or tomatoes. Leftover roasted potatoes can be used for convenience.
