For the Burrito

For the Spanish Rice

Method

Prepare the Spanish Rice

  1. 1

    Sauté the Aromatics

    In a medium saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until translucent. Add minced garlic and sauté for an additional minute.

  2. 2

    Cook the Rice

    Add the rice to the saucepan and toast it with the onion and garlic for about 2 minutes, stirring frequently.

  3. 3

    Add Liquids and Spices

    Pour in the water and tomato sauce, and add cumin and salt. Stir to combine.

  4. 4

    Simmer

    Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low and cover. Let it simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until the rice is cooked and the liquid is absorbed.

Assemble the Burrito

  1. 5

    Prepare the Tortillas

    Warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side, or until pliable.

  2. 6

    Layer the Ingredients

    On each tortilla, spread about 1/4 cup of refried black beans, followed by 1/2 cup of crispy tater tots, 1/2 cup of lettuce, and 1/4 cup of shredded cheese.

  3. 7

    Add Sauces

    Drizzle with chipotle crema, and top with pico de gallo and guacamole.

  4. 8

    Wrap the Burrito

    Fold in the sides of the tortilla and then roll it up tightly from the bottom to the top.
