The very first time I was introduced to a Tex-Mex Burrito was in Dallas, and ever since then, Mexican food became a game changer for me. Coming home I came up with a copy cat recipe. So enjoy!
Ingredients:
To Marinade:
1 Green Pepper
1 Yellow / Red Pepper
1 Onion (sliced)
3 Tbs Taco Seasoning Mix or Fajita Seasoning
1/2 package Onion soup Mix (optional)
1 tsp Chicken Powder (omit if you are using onion soup mix)
Steak (I just use the cheapest cut)
Salt & Pepper to Season Steak
1/2 tsp sugar
On the Side:
Refried Bean
Sour Cream (or Plain Yogurt)
Cheddar Cheese (shredded)
Salsa
Burrito Wraps
Gaucamole (see recipe here)
Procedure:
Season steak with salt and pepper.
Toss sliced onion, chopped pepper in a container, and place steak on top of the vegetables. Add all marinade seasoning on the surface of the meat and vegetable and mix well. Allow it to marinade for 2 hours or overnight.
Using a sheet of tin foil, make an envelope. Add vegetables with the juice and close the envelope. Grill vegetables on BBQ grill. If you don't have a grill, just pan fry the vegetables.
Grill or pan fry steak until medium rare.
Slice steak into strips.
In your wrap, add desired sides with your steak and vegetables. I like to add salsa, gaucamole, sour cream and cheese.
Enjoy!
Tip: With the left over sides, you can make nachos or chicken quesadilla with it.
Healthy Eats: Substitute sour cream with yogurt and omit cheese in your wrap to cut calories!
