Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons butter, plus more for greasing pan
- 1 + 1/3 pounds ground sirloin
- 1/2 cup diced onion
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 (11 ounce) can diced tomatoes & green chiles
- 2/3 cup tortilla chip crumbs (whiz tortilla chips in a food processor)
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire
- 1 + 1/3 cups sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 teaspoon oregano, crushed between fingertips (preferably Mexican)
- 1 teaspoon chile powder
- coarse salt and fresh black pepper
- 4 (10" or 12") flour tortillas
- topping:
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 large onion, thinly sliced
- 1 ripe Hass avocado, cubed
- fresh chopped cilantro or parsley (optional)
- sour cream, for serving (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with foil and grease lightly with butter.
- To a large mixing bowl add the sirloin, onion, garlic, tomatoes, tortilla crumbs, eggs, Worcestershire, cheese, and spices including about 1/2 teaspoon coarse salt and about 1/8 teaspoon black pepper. Use a fork to combine.
- Divide meat into 4 equal portions right in the bowl. Lay a flour tortilla out and add a portion of the meat a few inches from the edge - form into a "loaf" shape. Fold the end over the meat and then the sides, roll up and place on baking sheet seam side down. Repeat until all the burritos are made.
- Melt 2 tablespoons of butter and use a pastry brush to coat the burritos all over. Bake 25-30 minutes to an internal temperature of 165 degrees F. Check the burritos halfway through and if they are starting to brown too much cover them with foil.
- To make the topping heat a medium-size skillet over medium-low heat and melt butter and olive oil together. Add onion and cook until soft and browned, stirring often. Toss with the avocado, season with salt and pepper.
- To serve slice meatloaf with a serrated knife into 1" thick rounds. Garnish with onion mixture, fresh herbs and sour cream.
