Cooking Steps
• Wash and dry produce. • Dice tomato. Roughly chop cilantro. Quarter lime. • Pat steak dry with paper towels and thinly slice against the grain. In a medium bowl, combine steak, half the Mexican Spice Blend (you’ll use the rest in the next step), a drizzle of oil, salt, and pepper. Toss to evenly coat. • In a small bowl, combine tomato, cilantro, and juice from half the lime (whole lime for 4 servings). Taste and season with salt and pepper if desired.
• Rinse shrimp* under cold water, then pat dry with paper towels. • Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add shrimp; season with remaining Mexican Spice Blend, salt, and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until opaque and cooked through, 4-6 minutes. • Squeeze juice from one lime wedge (two wedges for 4 servings) over shrimp; stir to coat. Transfer to a second medium bowl. Wash out pan.
• Heat a drizzle of oil in same pan over medium-high heat. Add steak and cook to desired doneness, stirring occasionally, 3-5 minutes. Turn off heat; transfer to a plate. Wash out pan.
• Wrap tortillas in damp paper towels; microwave until warm and pliable, 30-60 seconds. • Gently massage rice in package to separate grains. Partially open package to vent. Microwave for 90 seconds. (Microwave times may vary. Be careful when handling and opening the pouch.)
• Lay tortillas flat on a clean work surface. Spread as much queso as you like on the bottom third of each tortilla. Top with about 1/3 cup each of rice, shrimp, and steak (you’ll have filling left over—save for serving). Top with as much salsa as you like. • Fold up bottom side of each tortilla over filling, then fold over left and right sides toward the filling. Roll up tortillas, starting with filled sides, to form burritos. • Heat a drizzle of oil in pan used for steak over medium heat. Add burritos, seam sides down, and cook until golden brown and crispy, 2-3 minutes. • Carefully flip and sear on opposite side until golden brown, 2-3 minutes. TIP: Lower heat if tortillas begin to brown too quickly.
• Transfer any remaining queso to a second small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave until warmed through, 30-60 seconds. • Divide burritos between plates. Serve with tortilla chips, guacamole, sour cream, any remaining filling, any remaining queso, and any remaining lime wedges on the side.

Review summary
Updated on Dec 2025- Flavor: Many loved the taste, though some found it needed more seasoning or a different spice blend for deeper flavor.
- Ease of prep: Several noted it was more time-consuming than expected, especially cleaning the shrimp and folding the burritos.
- Suggestions: Consider adding onions to make pico de gallo, and use larger tortillas for easier wrapping and more filling.
- Portions: Generous servings of steak and shrimp; some had enough leftover filling to make extra tacos or burritos.
- Texture: A few found the steak chewy or tough; crispy pan-seared tortillas were a hit 🌯.
Reviews from our home cooks
Very good!! Just took longer than expected because of having to clean the shrimp. We also seasoned up the steak more with our own spices as it needed a little more flavor. Probably won't do many orders with shrimp if we have to clean them (expected) but we have a 3mo old so we are looking for quick and easy! Loved the burritos otherwise.
Steak was great quality. Very quick and easy to make. Maybe add an onion next time so we can make pico instead of just "salsa." I liked that the rice was already cooked and the queso was already made. Sometimes I don't have time to do everything from scratch.
Huge hit with my hubby and son-in-law. The steak, shrimp and rice makes a huge amount of food. More than enough for the two burritos plus extra meat for them and a small tortilla for me. Very tasty.
I'm not an expert at folding the tortillas into burritos, but this gave me practice and the combination of the steak and the shrimp was terrific! I liked that the rice was already prepared and I just had to heat it up. Timesaver.
This meal is probably in the top 5 of all meals I have tried from Hello Fresh. There is an ample serving of steak and shrimp for two people. My wife and I really enjoyed this meal and will order again if it is available.
Great! The flavor was awesome! We had a bit of trouble wrapping them up with so many things to put in them, but we loved them!
Very, very, very good!!! Beats all mexican take-out! One thing we would like to see changed is the amount of the dips... Maybe twice as much would be great?
One tortilla per person? It was a lot of steak AND shrimp which is a good thing. We didn't even use the rice. Two tortillas would have been a big improvement at a nominal cost
Very tasty but needed more guidance on how to make a structurally sound burrito
Pretty good but the shrimp are not clean enough for my liking, and it was difficult to clean them properly due to the small size
