- Simmer for 10 to 12 minutes until thick and spoonable, then season with salt and black pepper.

- Optional: sear seam-side down in a dry hot pan for 1 to 2 minutes per side until golden.
- Serve hot with lime wedges and optional toppings.
Notes
Cook the filling until thick so the burritos roll tightly and hold shape.
For extra texture, pan-sear the wrapped burritos for 1 to 2 minutes per side before serving.
