Ingredients

• 1 pound Ground beef
• 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons Hoisin sauce
• 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon Ginger, minced
• 3 Green onions, sliced
• 1 cup Shredded carrots
• 1 cup Cabbage, thinly sliced
• 4 Large flour tortillas
• 2 cups Cooked white rice
• 1 teaspoon Chili paste or Sriracha (optional)
• 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the ground beef. Cook for 5-7 minutes, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until browned and fully cooked.

Step 2

Drain any excess fat from the skillet, then return to heat.

Step 3

Add the minced garlic, ginger, and sesame oil to the skillet and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently until fragrant.

Step 4

Stir in the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, and chili paste (if using). Cook for another 2 minutes to let the flavors combine.

Step 5

Reduce the heat to low and add the green onions, shredded carrots, and cabbage. Stir well and cook for another 1-2 minutes until the vegetables are slightly softened but still crisp.

Step 6

Warm the flour tortillas in the microwave or on a dry skillet for a few seconds until pliable.

Step 7

Assemble the burritos by spreading about 1/2 cup of cooked rice onto each tortilla, followed by a generous scoop of the beef and vegetable mixture.

Step 8

Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it up tightly from the bottom to form a burrito.

Step 9

Garnish with sesame seeds if desired, and serve immediately.

Step 10

Enjoy your Quick Beefy Chinese Burritos with extra chili paste or soy sauce on the side for dipping!
