Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish with olive oil or cooking spray.
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the flank steak with taco seasoning, salt, and black pepper, then sear it for 3-4 minutes per side until browned. Remove steak from the skillet, let it rest for 5 minutes, then slice thinly across the grain.
In a large mixing bowl, combine cooked white rice, black beans, and 1 cup of salsa. Mix well to create the burrito filling.
Lay a flour tortilla flat, add a small portion of the sliced steak and burrito filling in the center, then roll it up tightly. Repeat with the remaining tortillas, steak, and filling.
Place the rolled tortillas seam-side down in the prepared casserole dish, arranging them snugly side by side.
In a separate bowl, mix the sour cream and the remaining 0.5 cup of salsa. Spread this mixture evenly over the top of the rolled tortillas.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar and Monterey Jack cheeses evenly over the sour cream mixture, covering the entire dish.
Cover the casserole dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove the casserole from the oven and allow it to cool slightly for 5 minutes. Sprinkle chopped green onions and fresh cilantro (if using) over the top before serving.
