Ingredients
1 Tina's Big Burrito Red Hot Beef (frozen)
Cooking spray or parchment liner (to prevent sticking)
1 tsp olive oil (optional, for extra crispiness)
½ tsp garlic powder (optional, for added flavor)
½ tsp chili powder (optional, for a smoky touch)
¼ cup grated cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the Air Fryer
Set your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) and let it preheat for about 3-5 minutes. Preheating ensures the burrito starts crisping up immediately when placed in the air fryer.
Step 2: Prepare the Burrito
Remove the frozen burrito from the packaging and place it in the air fryer basket seam-side down.
Lightly spray with cooking spray or brush with olive oil to enhance crispiness.
If desired, sprinkle with garlic powder and chili powder before air frying for extra flavor.
Step 3: Air Fry the Burrito
Cook at 375°F for 14-16 minutes, flipping halfway through to ensure even crisping.
For extra crunch, cook an additional 2 minutes at 400°F at the end.
The burrito should be golden brown and crispy on the outside, while the beef filling remains hot and spicy.
Step 4: Serve & Enjoy
Carefully remove the burrito from the air fryer and let it cool for 2-3 minutes before eating.
Garnish with grated cheese and fresh cilantro for added flavor.
Serve immediately with a side of salsa, guacamole, sour cream, or hot sauce.
