Taco Bell Burrito Supreme

1 pound lean ground beef
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon dried minced onion
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
dash garlic powder
1/2 cup water
1 16-ounce can refried beans
8 10-inch flour tortillas
1/2 cup enchilada sauce
3/4 cup sour cream
2 cups shredded lettuce
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1 medium tomato, diced
1/2 cup diced yellow onion

1. In a medium bowl, combine the ground beef with the flour,
chili powder, salt, minced onion, paprika, onion powder, and
garlic powder. Use your hands to thoroughly mix the ingredients
into the ground beef.
2. Add the seasoned beef mixture to the water in a skillet over
medium heat. Mix well with a wooden spoon or spatula, and break
up the meat as it cooks. Heat for 5 to 6 minutes, or until browned.
The finished product should be very smooth, somewhat pasty,
with no large chunks of beef remaining.
3. Heat up the refried beans in a covered container in the microwave
set on high temperature for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes.
4. Place the flour tortillas on a plate and cover with plastic wrap.
Heat the tortillas for 30 to 45 seconds in the microwave on high
temperature.
5. Build each burrito by first spreading about 1/4 cup of refried
beans on the center of a heated flour tortilla. Spread one-eighth
of the meat mixture over the beans, then pour about a tablespoon of
the enchilada sauce over the meat.
6. Stir the sour cream well, so that it is smoother, then spread
about 1 1/2 tablespoons onto the burrito. Arrange some of the
lettuce, cheese, tomato, and onion onto the tortilla, and then
you're ready to roll.
7. Fold the end of the tortilla closest to you over the filling
ingredients. Fold either the left or right end over next. Then
fold the top edge over the filling. You will be leaving one end
of the burrito open and unfolded. Repeat with the remaining
ingredients and serve immediately.
Makes 8 burritos.

Wendy's Spicy Chicken Fillet Sandwich

6 to 8 cups vegetable oil
1/3 cup Frank's Original Red Hot Pepper Sauce
2/3 cup water
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 1/2 teaspoons salt
4 teaspoons cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon coarse ground black pepper
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
4 chicken breast fillets
4 plain hamburger buns
8 teaspoons mayonnaise
4 lettuce leaves
4 tomato slices

1. Preheat 6 to 8 cups of oil in a deep fryer to 350 degrees.
2. Combine the pepper sauce and water in a small bowl.
3. Combine the flour, salt, cayenne pepper, black pepper, onion
powder, paprika and garlic powder in another shallow bowl.
4. Pound each of the chicken pieces with a mallet until about
 3/8-inch thick. Trim each breast fillet if necessary to help it
fit on the bun.

 then dredge it in the diluted pepper sauce. Coat the chicken once
 again in the flour mixture and set it aside until the rest of the
chicken is coated.
6. Fry the chicken fillets for 8 to 12 minutes or until they are light
 brown and crispy. Remove the chicken to a rack or to paper towels to
 drain.
7. As chicken is frying, prepare each sandwich by grilling the face of
 the hamburger buns on a hot skillet over medium heat. Spread about 2
 teaspoons of mayonnaise on the face of each of the inverted top buns.
8. Place a tomato slice onto the mayonnaise, then stack a leaf of
lettuce on top of the tomato.
9. On each of the bottom buns, stack one piece of chicken.

serve hot.
