1. Prepare the Beef Filling:
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and minced garlic, and sauté until the onion becomes soft, approximately 3 minutes.
Add the ground beef, cooking it thoroughly until browned, and breaking it apart as it cooks.
If necessary, drain any excess fat. Stir in the taco seasoning mix and water. Allow the mixture to simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until it thickens.
Remove the skillet from heat, and stir in the shredded cheddar cheese until it’s fully melted and well combined.
2. Assemble the Burritos:
Warm the flour tortillas by heating them in a dry skillet or microwave for a few seconds until they become pliable.
Spread a layer of sour cream across each tortilla. Evenly distribute the beef mixture onto the center of each tortilla.
Top with salsa or chopped tomatoes, lettuce, red onion, and optional jalapeños for added heat.
3. Roll the Burritos:
Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it up tightly from the bottom, ensuring the filling is securely enclosed.
4. Serve:
Arrange the burritos on a serving platter. Drizzle with cheese sauce and garnish with crushed tortilla chips and chopped cilantro.
Serve with extra salsa on the side for an additional burst of flavor.
