Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground beef (80/20 for juiciness)
  • 1 small onion, finely diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1/2 tsp ground cumin
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp onion powder
  • 1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 2 tbsp tomato paste
  • 1/4 cup beef broth or water
  • Large flour tortillas (10-inch size)
  • Small tostada shells or small corn tortillas
  • Cooking oil or butter for crisping
  • Shredded cheddar cheese (or cheddar and Monterey Jack blend)
  • Shredded lettuce
  • Diced tomatoes (optional)
  • Sour cream or plain Greek yogurt
  • Prepared taco sauce or salsa

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper. Set aside.
  2. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add the ground beef. Break it apart with a spatula, cooking for about 3-4 minutes until it starts to brown.
  3. Add diced onion and minced garlic to the beef. Cook for another 3 minutes, stirring occasionally until onions soften and the beef is fully browned.
  4. Stir in the tomato paste and spice mix. Pour in the beef broth or water. Reduce heat to medium-low, simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until thickened. Remove from heat.
  5. Lay a large flour tortilla flat on your workspace. Spread about 1/2 cup of the seasoned beef mixture in the center.
  6. Place a small tostada shell or smaller corn tortilla on top of the beef to add crunch.
  7. Add a layer of shredded cheese over the tostada, followed by a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt, then shredded lettuce and optional diced tomatoes. Finish with a drizzle of taco sauce or salsa.
  8. Fold the edges of the large tortilla toward the center, overlapping to create pleats and seal the filling inside.
  9. Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a small amount of oil or butter. Place the folded crunchwrap seam-side down in the skillet. Press gently with a spatula and cook for 3-4 minutes until golden and crisp.
  10. Flip carefully and cook the other side for another 3-4 minutes until crisp and golden and cheese is melted.
  11. Remove from skillet, let cool for a minute, then slice in half and serve warm.

Notes

Warm tortillas slightly before folding to prevent tearing. Press the crunchwrap gently with a spatula while cooking to seal edges and achieve a crispy crust. Avoid overfilling to make folding easier. Reheat leftovers in a skillet to maintain crispiness; avoid microwaving.
