Indulge in crispy Air Fryer Beef & Cheese Chimichurri Bombs, bursting with flavor and melty goodness. A must-try comfort food explosion!
Ingredients
- • Ground beef: 1 lb (450g)
- • Onion, finely chopped: 1/2 cup
- • Garlic, minced: 2 cloves
- • Ground cumin: 1 teaspoon
- • Smoked paprika: 1 teaspoon
- • Salt: 1 teaspoon
- • Black pepper: 1/2 teaspoon
- • Cheddar cheese, shredded: 1 cup
- • Flour tortillas: 8 small
- • Olive oil: 2 tablespoons
- • Fresh parsley, chopped: 1/4 cup
- • Fresh cilantro, chopped: 1/4 cup
- • Red wine vinegar: 2 tablespoons
- • Red chili flakes: 1/4 teaspoon
Instructions
- 1 Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
- 2 In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef, onion, and garlic until the beef is browned and the onion is soft, about 5-7 minutes. Add cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper, stirring to combine. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
- 3 Lay out the flour tortillas and place about 2 tablespoons of the beef mixture in the center of each. Top with a generous sprinkle of shredded cheddar cheese. Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling and roll tightly to form a burrito shape.
- 4 Brush each roll with olive oil and place them seam side down in the air fryer basket. Cook for 8-10 minutes, or until the tortillas are golden and crispy.
- 5 While the bombs are cooking, make the chimichurri sauce by mixing parsley, cilantro, red wine vinegar, olive oil, minced garlic, and red chili flakes in a small bowl.
- 6 Serve the sizzling beef and cheese bombs hot, drizzled with chimichurri sauce for a burst of fresh, herbal flavor.
Serving Suggestions
- • These Air Fryer Sizzling Beef & Cheese Chimichurri Bombs pair beautifully with a simple side salad of mixed greens, avocado, and cherry tomatoes dressed with a tangy vinaigrette. For a complete indulgent meal, serve with seasoned sweet potato fries or a creamy coleslaw. A chilled glass of white wine, such as a Sauvignon Blanc, complements the robust flavors, or opt for a light, refreshing lager to balance the richness of the dish.
Storage Tips
To store leftovers, allow the bombs to cool completely, then wrap them individually in foil or plastic wrap. Store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place in the air fryer for 3-4 minutes at 350°F (175°C) until heated through and crispy again.
