1 pound ground beef
1/2 can refried beans
1 package spanish rice, prepared
2 tablespoons cream cheese
1/2 cup Mexican cheese
Taco seasoning
Taco sauce
1/2 cup water
Lime juice
1/2 can Mexicorn
1 small can green chiles
Onion powder
Garlic powder
Package of 6 inch flour tortillas
1 tablespoon butter
Brown the meat, keep the grease or drain it. Up to you. But these are already unhealthy as fuck, so why not just go whole hog, right?
Spread the browned meat out the sides, leaving a nice little bean hole in your skillet. Dump your beans there. Lower the heat to around medium and let the beans warm enough so you can incorporate them into your beef. Add your water, about a half cup of taco sauce and the taco seasoning. Homemade or the package kind. Don't matter to me.
At this point, go ahead and boil your water and get your Spanish rice going. It'll take like 20 minutes. Get that little yellow package. It gets nice and mushy and works best for this.
Once your beef mixture has come together, add in your cheese, cream cheese, green chiles and corn. Drain them first. Duh.
Taste test it and add more salt, pepper, garlic, onion, unicorn farts, whatever your taste buds are hollering for. Add cilantro if you like. I just don't like cilantro. Tastes like soapy ass to me.
Take the heat down to low and wait for your rice to finish cooking. Stir it if it starts to look weird. Once your rice is done, gently fold that into your meat mixture.
Heat your oven to 425°.
Put foil on your baking sheet so you don't gotta wash it afterwards.
Take each little tortilla and add like a spoonful and a half of the meat mixture to it. Roll it into a fat little cigar. Taquito! Keep doing that. And yes, you're gonna have lots of leftover meat. It's fine. Once you have them all on the baking sheet, melt your butter and brush your chimiquitos with it.
Bake for about 15 minutes, or until you see the ends getting nice and browned up. Let cool, serve with sour cream, if you want. Or just eat them. b/c they are yummy as fuck.
Now, as for all that leftover meat?? Get the bigger tortillas, the ones for burritos. Wrap them up like littler presents. Put them in a casserole dish that you've sprayed with Pam. Brush with melted butter, top with a light layer of taco sauce and some more cheese. Take your oven down to 400° and bake these guys for about 15 minutes, or until the cheese is all melty.
You may still have leftover meat. It's cool. Just save it for another day. Enjoy!
