Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef (80/20 lean to fat ratio)
  • 0.5 cup yellow onion, finely diced
  • 2 cloves garlic , minced
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 0.5 tsp kosher salt
  • 0.25 tsp ground black pepper
  • 2 cups marinara sauce, divided
  • 12 small flour tortillas
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
  • 0.5 cup sliced pepperoni
  • 0.25 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • In a large skillet over medium-high heat, sauté the ground beef and diced onions until the beef is fully browned and the onions are translucent. Drain any excess rendered fat.
  • Add minced garlic, oregano, salt, and black pepper to the skillet; cook for 60 seconds until fragrant.
  • Incorporate 0.5 cup of marinara sauce and 0.5 cup of shredded mozzarella into the beef mixture, stirring until the cheese is partially melted.
  • Spread 0.5 cup of marinara sauce evenly across the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish.
  • Distribute the beef mixture evenly among the 12 flour tortillas. Roll each tortilla tightly and place them seam-side down in the baking dish.
  • Pour the remaining 1 cup of marinara sauce over the center of the rolled tortillas.
  • Evenly distribute the remaining 1.5 cups of mozzarella cheese, sliced pepperoni, and grated Parmesan over the top.
  • Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbling and slightly golden brown.
  • Allow the dish to rest for 5 minutes before serving to ensure internal structural integrity.
