Double Crunch Fried Burritos Recipes

DOUBLE CRUNCH FRIED CHICKEN TACOS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F and set a wire rack inside a rimmed baking sheet.
• Slice a chicken breast horizontally three-quarters of the way through, then open it up like a book. Cover with plastic wrap and pound the chicken breast with a mallet or rolling pin until 1/2 inch thick. Repeat with the remaining chicken.
• Heat about 4 inches oil in a large heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat until it reaches 360 degrees F.
• Meanwhile, whisk the cornstarch, seafood seasoning and 2 teaspoons kosher salt together in a shallow bowl. Whisk the eggs in another shallow bowl.
• Dip a piece of chicken in the cornstarch, then eggs, then cornstarch, then eggs and finally in the cornstarch again.
• Wrap the chicken around a hard taco shell (to resemble a taco) and hold in place gently with a pair of tongs. Lower the chicken into the hot oil, submerging it fully, and hold for about 45 seconds before releasing on its side. Cook for 3 minutes, then flip to the other side and cook until the crust is golden brown and the chicken is cooked through, about 3 minutes more. Place on the prepared wire rack to drain and cool. Repeat with the remaining chicken breasts and taco shells. Transfer the chicken taco shells to the oven to keep warm.
• Combine the cabbage, carrots, mayonnaise and hot sauce in a large bowl. Place a heaping tablespoon of slaw in the base of each chicken taco shell, then top with cherry tomatoes and avocado. Enjoy.

FRIED BURRITOS

Steps:

• Brown beef with taco seasoning. DO NOT add water to the seasoning as directed on the packet, as we have found this makes the filling much too runny.
• Drain meat.
• Mash beans or process in food processor. I sometimes remove a few of the jalapenos, but this is up to you.
• Stir together beans and seasoned beef. Stir in cheese. One lady I know uses 1 cup, while we sometimes leave it out altogether. This, again, is personal preference.
• Spoon filling into tortillas. We prefer "soft taco" sized tortillas, which will make about 7 burritos. Smaller sizes make them difficult to seal, while larger sizes tend to be "too much" for us, but they may be perfect for you! Be sure to fold in both end of the tortilla; seal shut with toothpicks.
• Heat about 3/4" cooking oil in a pan. When hot, add 2-3 burritos. When the bottom turns a deep gold, after about 3 minutes, flip over and brown other side.
• Drain on a wire rack over a paper-lined plate.

FRIED BURRITOS

Steps:

• Warm the tortillas for 15 seconds in the microwave. This will prevent them from cracking when you work with them.
• If they are not sufficiently heated, heat for an additional 10 seconds until fairly warm.
• Once heated, keep them warm by placing them in a tortilla warmer, or two inverted plates.
• Put the oil in a deep skillet. The oil should be about an inch deep.
• Turn the burner to medium-low. The oil is ready when a drop of water "dances" on it.
• Remove one tortilla at a time from the warmer and place on clean surface.
• Spread 1-2 tablespoon refried beans in a line down center of tortilla.
• Place half a piece of cheese, followed by an additional fourth a piece cheese on the beans.
• Fold the top and bottom of the tortilla in, then the sides.
• Place, seam side down, in the oil.
• Fry until browned on one side. This will not take long. Turn and brown on other side.
• Prepare the remaining tortillas as you did before and place them to the oil. You should have NO MORE than 3 frying at one time.
• When you remove them from the oil, place on a thick layer of paper towels to dry.

FRIED BURRITOS

Steps:

• 1. Step 1: Brown ground beef along with; onion, garlic, salt, pepper and chili powder on medium-high heat. Drain and return back to the pot.
• 2. Step 2: Over medium-high heat add the beans along with the liquid from the beans to the meat mixture. Once the mixture starts to bubble turn off the burner and smash still leaving some beans whole.
• 3. Step 3: Place 1-2 Tbsp. shredded cheese in a line along the center of the tortilla (not too close to the edges or the cheese will fall out while frying). Then add about 1/2 cup of meat mixture and roll into a burrito leaving one end open then lightly flatten the burrito (remember not to much pressure because then you will start to loose mixture from the opened end)to prevent rolling around while browning. Repeat until you have all the burritos prepared.
• 4. HERE IS WHERE YOU CAN MAKE A FEW CHANGES! I MYSELF PREFER THIS METHOD: Step 4: Heat 2-3 Tbsp. veg. oil in a large skillet/frying pan on med-high heat. When the oil is hot lay enough burritos to cover the bottom of the pan. Once golden brown (2-3 min.) turn over and brown the other side. As the burritos are done lay them on a paper towel lined baking pan and sprinkle with parmesan cheese. ENJOY! OR Deep fry on med-high heat for 3-5 min. turning once. When the burritos are golden brown they are done. As the burritos are done lay them on a paper towel lined baking pan and sprinkle with parmesan cheese. ENJOY!
