Instructions

  1. For the dressing, stir together all the dressing ingredients. Refrigerate until needed (this can be made several days ahead of time).
  2. For the burrito mixture, in a large 12-inch or deep skillet, add the ground beef, onion, garlic, salt and pepper, and cook over medium heat, breaking the meat into small pieces as it cooks. When the meat is no longer pink, drain any excess grease.
  3. Add the sweet potatoes, black beans, green chiles, tomato paste, chicken broth, chili powder, cumin, oregano, and paprika. Stir to combine evenly. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat. Cover, and cook for 15-20 minutes until the sweet potatoes are tender, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. Adjust the heat, if needed. Add additional salt and pepper to taste, if needed.
  4. Serve the burrito mixture over hot, cooked rice and top with dressing and any additional toppings!
