These delicious steak burritos are made in only 20 minutes. They are a spicy Mexican treat which is super easy to make! However, if you don’t like as much spice simply remove the added chillies and chilli flakes!
You can cook the steak to your liking:
Rare- around 1 1/2 minutes per side, Medium Rare- 2 minutes per side, Medium- around 2 1/4 minutes per side or Well Done- around 4-5 minutes each side. (Depending on the thickness of the steak)
Make it Vegan
Simply substitute the steak for tenderstem broccoli and ignore step 1 and 3. Add the broccoli when you fry the other vegetables.
Or use sweet potatoes instead. Ignore step 1 and 3 and simply cook 2 sweet potatoes (cut into small chunks) and add them to the vegetable mixture when you add the kidney beans.
Also, check your tortilla wraps are vegan friendly.

Steak Burritos
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp Olive oil
- 100g Basmati rice
- 500g Steak (preferably sirlion) fat removed
- 1/2 Red pepper (cut into slices)
- 1/2 Green pepper (cut into slices)
- 1 Red onion (cut into slices)
- 1 Clove garlic (crushed)
- 1 tsp Dried oregano
- 1 tsp Chilli flakes
- 1 tsp Paprika
- 400g Kidney beans (drained)
To Serve
- 2 Large tortilla wraps
- 1 Spring onion (sliced)
- 1 Red chilli (sliced)
- 1 Green chilli (sliced)
- 1 Bunch fresh coriander (optional)
- Chilli flakes (optional)
- Dried coriander (optional)
- Mexican hot sauce
Instructions
- Remove the fat from the steaks and place on a plate. Rub the olive oil into the steaks and season on both sides with salt and pepper. Set aside and let the steaks get to room temperature. Meanwhile boil the kettle and cook the rice according to packet instructions (or you can use microwave rice if you prefer)
- Heat a non-stick pan to high and sear the steaks quickly on all sides. Reduce the heat to medium and cook for 1-2 minutes on each side (or longer if you like your steak cooked more). Remove from the pan and leave to rest.
- Add the peppers, onion, and garlic to the pan and fry for 2 minutes. Add the oregano, chilli flakes, and paprika, and fry for a further minute. Season to taste, add the kidney beans and cook for 1 minute.
- Cut the steaks into thin slices, drain the rice and warm the tortillas for 30 seconds in a microwave.
To Serve
- Place each tortilla on a plate and top with half the rice. Add half the vegetables on top and then arrange the steak on top.
- Sprinkle with spring onion, chillies, chilli flakes, dried coriander and Mexican hot sauce to your liking. Finish with a bunch of fresh coriander.
