🥩🍤 Ingredients (2–4 burritos)
🌯 Base

- Lettuce or cabbage (optional crunch)
🥩 Steak (turf)
- 200–300g steak (sirloin or flank)

🍤 Shrimp (surf)

🥑 Extras (highly recommended)
- Guacamole or sliced avocado

🔥 How to Make Them
1. Cook the steak
Sear steak in a hot pan until browned and juicy.
Rest 5 minutes, then slice thinly.
2. Cook the shrimp
Sauté shrimp in butter/garlic until pink (2–3 min).
Finish with lime juice and a pinch of salt.
3. Warm everything
Heat tortillas so they don’t crack.
Warm rice and cheese slightly for better melt.
4. Build the burrito
Layer in this order:
- rice
- steak
- shrimp
- cheese
- avocado/guac
- sauce
5. Wrap + toast (optional but amazing)
Roll tightly.
Toast seam-side down in a pan for 1–2 minutes per side.
😋 What it tastes like
- Juicy steak + buttery shrimp combo
- Creamy avocado + melted cheese
- Smoky, citrusy, slightly spicy layers
- Soft tortilla with crispy toasted edges
🔁 Upgrade ideas
- 🌶️ Chipotle mayo for smoky heat
- 🧄 Garlic butter drizzle inside
- 🧀 Queso sauce instead of shredded cheese
- 🌮 Add pico de gallo for freshness
- 🥓 Bacon = “ultimate surf & turf deluxe”
⚡ Pro tip
Don’t overload liquid sauces inside—keep them creamy, not watery, or the burrito will break when rolling.
