These air-fried mini burritos are great for a grab 'n go breakfast or even for a midday snack. Leave out the serrano chile pepper for a less spicy version.

Provided by Yoly

Time 45m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

¼ cup Mexican-style chorizo
1 tablespoon bacon grease
½ cup diced potatoes
2 tablespoons chopped onion
1 serrano pepper, chopped
2 large eggs
salt and ground black pepper to taste
4 (8 inch) flour tortillas
avocado oil cooking spray

Steps:

  • Cook chorizo in a large skillet over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, until sausage turns a dark red, 6 to 8 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
  • Melt bacon grease in the same skillet over medium-high heat. Add diced potatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, 8 to 10 minutes. Add onion and serrano pepper and continue cooking and stirring until potatoes are fork-tender, onion is translucent, and serrano pepper is soft, 2 to 6 minutes. Add eggs and chorizo; stir until cooked and completely incorporated into potato mixture, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Meanwhile, heat tortillas in a large skillet or directly on the grates of a gas stove until soft and pliable. Place 1/3 cup chorizo mixture down the center of each tortilla. Fold top and bottom of tortillas over the filling, then roll each into a burrito shape. Mist with cooking spray and place in the basket of an air fryer.
  • Air fry at 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) for 4 to 6 minutes. Flip each burrito over, mist with cooking spray, and air fry until lightly browned, 2 to 4 minutes more.

Time 30m

Yield 20 approx. mini burritos, 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/3 lb ground beef (or ground turkey, chicken, bison, etc.)
1/3-1/2 small onion, chopped
1/3 small green pepper, chopped
1 -2 garlic clove, minced
2 -3 tablespoons taco seasoning mix
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1/3 cup salsa
20 wonton wrappers

cilantro

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Brown ground meat, adding onion, pepper, and garlic about halfway through the browning process.
  • Add taco seasoning, cumin, salsa, and a small amount or water (1/3 cup or less) when meat has browned and allow to simmer over medium heat until mixture is dry.
  • Remove meat from heat.
  • Lay 4-6 wonton wrappers out and place one pinch of cheese and one level spoonful of meat mixture in each wrapper.
  • Use your finger to wet 2 sides of the wrapper and fold into a triangle or rectangle shape (the shape doesn't matter- it's up to you!).
  • DO NOT OVERFILL!
  • Place filled wontons onto greased baking sheet or jelly roll.
  • Repeat filling until out of meat mixture.
  • Place in oven and bake for 10 minutes.
  • Remove from oven, sprinkle cheese over top, and replace in oven for additional 5 minutes or until cheese has melted and wontons are crisp on the edges.
  • ENJOY! (I top mine with hot sauce and dip in sour cream and salsa like a nacho).

MAMI'S MINI CHICKEN BURRITOS



Mami's Mini Chicken Burritos image

Super easy, tasty and quick burritos. I make them with regular flour tortillas so that they come out the perfect size for my kids' small hands- if I made them with those huge burrito-size tortillas, they would never eat them! Great use for leftover cooked chicken. I divide the filling in two before I add the jalapeno and then add it to only one filling for the adults. These can also be served as an appetizer.

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 15m

Yield 10 mini burritos

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 cups cooked chicken breasts, shredded
1 cup cooked beans (pinto, black or whatever you like)
1 roma tomato, chopped
1/4 cup tomato sauce
1 -2 canned jalapeno chile, finely chopped
1/2 cup shredded cheese (Monterey. Manchego, Oaxaca, Cheddar)
1 cup shredded lettuce (optional)
10 regular size flour tortillas

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, mix chicken with the beans, tomato, tomato sauce and jalapeno. Meanwhile, heat a large non-stick skillet over low heat. If you know how to heat tortillas in a griddle, then do so, otherwise warm them slightly in the microwave between paper towels. Place one tortilla in a plate. Put about 2 tbs filling in the center of the tortilla, top with a little cheese and lettuce, if desired. Fold the sides of the tortillas over the filling, then fold the side closest to you over the filling and turn burritos over, enclosing the filling. Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling. Place seam side down on the skillet so that the burritos get nice and crispy on the outside and the cheese melts. Serve hot.

Categories     Meat Appetizers

Time 2h20m

Number Of Ingredients 18

MEAT AND MARINADE
3 lb flank steak
1/4 c white vinegar
1/2 c soy sauce
4 clove garlic, minced
2 limes, juiced
1/2 c olive oil
1 tsp chili powder
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp paprika
salt and pepper, to taste
OTHER BURRITO INGREDIENTS
1 pkg extra crispy shoestring potatoes, frozen
2 pkg flour tortillas
2 c 4-cheese mexican blend, shredded
guacamole
sour cream

Steps:

  • 1. In a large glass baking dish, combine all marinade ingredients except for flank steak. Stir until well-combined. Add flank steak and immerse into marinade, turning over to completely coat. Cover and refrigerate for anywhere between 1 hr and overnight, but no longer.
  • 2. Bake shoestring potatoes on a baking sheet according to package directions. Once cooked, set aside.
  • 3. While potatoes are baking, heat a large grill pan or skillet to medium-high heat. When pan in hot, place marinated meat in pan and cook for a few minutes on each side, to desired doneness. Once cooked, place on cutting board and allow to rest for a few minutes. Once rested, cut meat into small, bite-sized cubes. Set aside.
  • 4. Heat a large skillet to medium heat and spray lightly with cooking spray. Place one tortilla into the pan and sprinkle enough cheese to almost cover the surface, leaving about 1 inch of tortilla uncovered all around. Heat until cheese is just melted and bottom begins to brown and crisp.
  • 5. To assemble, place warm tortilla on a plate. Add about 1/4 c of meat toward the bottom of tortilla. Next, place about 4-5 potato pieces on top of meat. Add as much guacamole and sour cream as desired.
  • 6. Begin rolling tortilla from bottom, folding sides in as you roll. Cut burrito in middle. Repeat steps 4-6 for more burritos!

MINI COLD BURRITOS



Mini Cold Burritos image

I started making these 7 yrs ago, and get asked for the recipe every time. Super easy, and everyone loves them! They are always my go to!

Provided by Dana Esterline

Categories     Other Appetizers

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 5

8 oz cream cheese
1/2 can(s) vegetarian refried beans
3 dash(es) chili powder or to taste
1/2 c salsa. depending on how spicy you want it
2 pkg large flour tortillas

Steps:

  • 1. Mix all of the ingredients together with a mixer.
  • 2. Let chill in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes. (the longer you let it chill, the easier it is to spread. I like to make mine the night before if I'm making them in the morning.)
  • 3. Using a spatula, scoop the mixture onto a "large burrito" sized flour tortilla. Spread it evenly, leaving a half inch space at the edge you will be rolling towards. (the mixture will smoosh and overflow if you don't)
  • 4. Roll the tortillas towards the end that you left space at the edge. leave the ends open. It should be the size of two fingers when you are done.
  • 5. Cut into pieces, I usually get 8 pieces out of each tortilla.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of tortillas. You can use flour tortillas, corn tortillas, or even whole wheat tortillas. If you're using corn tortillas, be sure to heat them up before filling them so that they don't crack.
  • Don't overstuff the burritos. You want the burritos to be able to close easily without bursting. If you overstuff them, they'll be difficult to eat and they'll fall apart.
  • Use a variety of fillings. You can use any type of filling you like in your burritos. Some popular options include:
    • Shredded chicken or beef
    • Black beans or pinto beans
    • Rice
    • Vegetables, such as lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and peppers
    • Cheese
    • Sauces, such as salsa, guacamole, or sour cream
  • Fold the burritos tightly. Once you've filled the burritos, fold them tightly so that they don't come apart. You can fold them in half or in thirds.
  • Heat the burritos before serving. You can heat the burritos in the oven, in a skillet, or on a griddle. This will help to warm the tortillas and melt the cheese.

Conclusion:

Mini burritos are a delicious and versatile snack or meal that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They're easy to make and can be tailored to your own personal preferences. With a little creativity, you can create endless variations of mini burritos that are sure to please everyone. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, try making a batch of mini burritos. You won't be disappointed!
