Important Notes

⚠️

This recipe involves several components, so it's a good idea to prep the sauces while the meat is marinating and the dough is resting.

⚠️

The homemade tortilla is key to replicating the giant size of the original burrito. Be patient when rolling it out to get it as large and thin as possible without tearing.

⚠️

Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the meat; cook it in batches if necessary to ensure a good sear on all pieces.
