Ingredients
For the beef filling:
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 onion diced
- 1 tsp salt

Instructions
- Sauté onion in olive oil until soft. Add ground beef, break it up, and cook until browned.
- Season with salt, pepper, smoked paprika, and oregano. Stir in tomato sauce and simmer for 5 minutes.
- Lay tortillas flat. Spread spicy mayo in the center, add fried rice, drizzle nacho cheese, spoon sour cream, sprinkle crushed chips, and top with beef.
- Fold sides in and roll tightly from the bottom up to seal everything inside.
- Heat skillet over medium. (Optional: sprinkle cheese in the pan.) Place burrito seam-side down and grill until golden and crisp, 2–3 minutes per side.
