3. [0:34](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h4fen5cbKxM&t=34s) Break up the beef and cook until it is browned and has released its fat.
4. [0:43](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h4fen5cbKxM&t=43s) Drain excess fat, leaving about 2 to 3 tablespoons of oil in the pan.
5. [0:44](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h4fen5cbKxM&t=44s) Add the chopped onions, cumin, paprika, chili powder, and salt to the beef.
6. [0:57](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h4fen5cbKxM&t=57s) Sauté for 3 to 4 minutes until the onions are softened and the beef is nicely browned.
7. [1:41](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h4fen5cbKxM&t=101s) Add the can of Ro*Tel tomatoes with green chilies and the can of black beans with their juice.
8. [1:53](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h4fen5cbKxM&t=113s) Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 8 to 10 minutes until the liquid has mostly evaporated.
9. [2:02](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h4fen5cbKxM&t=122s) Turn off the heat and season with salt and black pepper to taste, then let the mixture cool slightly.
10. [2:14](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h4fen5cbKxM&t=134s) Lay out a large flour tortilla, sprinkle a portion of cheese in the center, add 2/3 cup of the beef mixture, and top with more cheese.
11. [2:28](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h4fen5cbKxM&t=148s) Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll tightly from the bottom to seal the burrito.
12. [3:23](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h4fen5cbKxM&t=203s) Repeat the assembly process to make six burritos.
13. [3:52](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h4fen5cbKxM&t=232s) Heat a skillet over medium heat, add a small amount of oil, and place the burritos in the pan.
14. [4:00](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h4fen5cbKxM&t=240s) Sauté the burritos for a few minutes on each side until they are golden brown and crispy all over.
