Fox Trot Farm Ground Lamb Burrito Bowl
One day we were so hungry for a savory lamb supper with south-of-the-border flavors that I created this yummy burrito bowl using our delicious ground lamb and ingredients most of us have in our pantry. It was a hit with Farmer Bob, and it really stretches a pound of lamb to serve many hungry mouths. BONUS! It’s a one skillet meal and goes together in minutes!
One-skillet lamb burrito mixture.

Fox Trot Farm Ground Lamb
Here is the recipe:
Fox Trot Farm Lamb Burrito Bowl
Equipment
- skillet
Ingredients
- 1 pound Fox Trot Farm Ground Lamb
- 1 cup chopped onion
- ½ cup water
- 2 tbsp Taco seasoning, from your favorite brand
- 1 can tomatoes & chilis, (Such as Rotel), undrained
- 1 can black beans, rinsed and drained
- 1 can whole kernel plain or Southwest (Del Monte) corn, drained, optional
- Toppings such as sour cream, shredded cheese, sliced scallions, cilantro, etc.
- Cooked rice, heated (we love the Goya brand)
- Corn or flour tortilla wedges
Instructions
- In a large nonstick skillet, brown the Fox Trot Farm ground lamb and then drain, reserving 2 tablespoons of drippings.
- Return the meat to the skillet with the reserved drippings and stir in the onions. Saute till the onions begin to soften.
- Add the water to the pan and stir in the taco seasoning. Bring to a simmer, which takes just a minute, and then add the tomatoes with green chilis.
- Stir the black beans into the mixture, and the corn if you opt for that addition.
- Cover the skillet and bring the contents to a boil, then lower the heat to a gentle simmer for 10 minutes.
- Taste for seasoning and add more salt if needed. Taco seasoning is generally salty enough for us.
- Serve buffet style with accompaniments for fun so each can prepare their own bowl to their liking.
- Enjoy!
