    Steak Burritoas with Chili Lime Sauce using Dempster's Tortillas | InSearchOfYummyness.com #sponsored

    This post has been sponsored by Dempster's.

    I've been wanting to share my weeknight burrito recipe for a few months now, but I was having trouble finding the right tortillas.

    My favourite burrito restaurant uses gigantic tortillas that can be stuffed and wrapped into a tidy pocket, but the tortillas I was using at home were only about a third of the size of those. Finally, I decided to try Dempster's Tortillas. These are perfect for burritos because they are larger than the ones you get in burrito "kits" and they taste better too.

    In this recipe I used beef sirloin tip steak, a cut of meat that is generally cheap but it can also be a bit dry. Another good option would be skirt steak, if you can find it. I added black beans, shredded cheese, refried beans and leftover Mexican rice to my burritos, but you can add any toppings that you prefer. I also served it with salsa and a chilli lime sauce, but these pair nicely with guacamole too.

    Ingredients

    For the Steak:

    • 1 tablespoon peppercorns
    • 2 tablespoon coriander seeds
    • 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
    • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
    • 2 teaspoon salt
    • ½ teaspoon ground cumin
    • 1 tablespoon lime juice
    • 2 tablespoon olive oil
    • 1 pound sirloin tip steak or skirt steak

    For the Chilli Lime Sauce:

    • 4 tablespoon sour cream
    • ½ teaspoon chilli powder
    • 1 ½ teaspoon lime juice
    • zest of half a lime
    • 1 pound sirloin tip steak

    For the Burritos:

    • 1 package of Dempster's Flour Tortillas
    • 1 can refried beans
    • 1 can black beans
    • 2 cups of cooked rice
    • shredded cheddar cheese, or your favourite cheese
    • Cooked steak, cut into thin slices

    Instructions 

    To Marinate the Steak:

    • Toast the peppercorns, coriander seeds and red pepper flakes in a small pan until fragrant.
    • Crush the spices using a mortar and pestle, or with the back of a heavy pan on a cutting board.
    • Combine the toasted spices in a bowl with the sugar, salt, cumin, lime juice and oil.
    • Place the steak into a zip-top bag and cover with the spice mixture. Marinate in the fridge for 30 minutes.

    For the Chilli Lime Sauce:

    • Combine all ingredients in a bowl, adjusting seasonings to your personal preference. Cover the bowl and place the sauce in the fridge until ready to serve.

    To Assemble the Burritos:

    • Add some oil to a medium pan and cook the steaks for 2-4 minutes per side, or to your liking. Allow the steaks to rest for a few minutes before slicing them into thin pieces, cutting against the grain.
    • Heat the refried beans, either on the stovetop or in the microwave, and set aside.
    • Wrap the tortillas in tin foil and heat in the oven, or just warm them in the microwave.
    • Spread each tortilla with the refried beans, add the toppings you want, then add a dollop of the chilli lime sauce.
    • Fold your tortilla and serve with salsa, plain sour cream, guacamole or other sauces for dipping.

      Yum, Shareba! This sounds so good. I love burritos and how you can fill them with all the things that you like. I found some skirt steak the other day, but it seemed really expensive. In Texas , where I am from you can find that meat everywhere and it is super cheap. It's usually less than $2/pound, but last time I saw it here it was nearly $14/pound. Huge difference, right?
      Steak burritos would be great for dinner. I just need some of these big tortillas 😀

        That is crazy! I wonder why it's so much cheaper in Texas... I have a hard time finding skirt steak at a decent price here. The sirloin tip I used was ok, but it would be nicer if the meat was more tender.
