Ingredients

Chili:

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 pounds ground beef 

3 cloves garlic, minced 

2 tablespoons tomato paste 

Two 14-ounce cans kidney beans, drained and rinsed 

One 14-ounce can tomato sauce 

One 10-ounce can diced tomatoes and green chiles 

1/4 cup chili powder 

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper 

Burritos:

8 large flour tortillas, lightly warmed

2 cups grated Cheddar

1 yellow onion, diced small 

2 cups corn chips 

1/2 cup sour cream 

Olive oil, for toasting 

Directions

  1. For the chili: Place a skillet over medium-high heat and add the oil. When the oil is hot, add the ground beef and brown, crumbling as you go, until cooked through, 7 to 8 minutes. Add the garlic and tomato paste. Stir and cook for 1 minute. Add the kidney beans, tomato sauce, tomatoes and green chiles, chili powder, salt and pepper, then bring to a simmer. Continue to simmer and thicken, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes.
  2. For the burritos: Add about 1 cup chili to a tortilla, then top with grated Cheddar and some diced onion. Add a handful of corn chips and a dollop of sour cream. Tuck the sides of the tortilla and roll tightly, then set aside. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.
  3. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add a little olive oil. In batches, toast the burritos until golden, about 1 minute per side.

these are good! just spicy enough for everyone's taste, a good combination of flavors and textures... easy enough to make if time is limited. loved the Fritos - very clever. the chili is good on it's own, and the burrito as a whole is delicious.
