To make the seasoned ground beef, heat the vegetable oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add grated onion and cook until translucent, 2-3 minutes.
Add in the ground beef, stirring occasionally and breaking up with the back of a wooden spoon. Once the beef has browned, add in the seasoning packet, cayenne pepper (if using) and 1/4 cup water. Simmer until the water is evaporated and the meat is coated with the spices, another 1-2 minutes. Set aside and let cool slightly.
To make the queso, add the can of Rotel and cilantro to a blender or food processor and pulse until only very small chunks remain. Add the Rotel, Velveeta, and milk to a saucepan and melt over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Once the cheese is fully melted, season to taste with additional salt as needed. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
In a bowl, stir together the rice, cilantro, and the zest and juice from the lime. Set aside.
Heat a grill pan (or a skillet) over medium-high heat while you prepare the burrito.
Place the tortilla on a plate and sprinkle the shredded cheese evenly over the tortilla. Microwave for 20 seconds until the cheese is mostly melted.
Add the rice and seasoned beef in the middle of the tortilla. Top with queso. Roll into a burrito.
Place the burrito in the grill pan, seam side down, and grill until golden brown. Flip and grill on other side, approx 1-2 minutes per side.
Enjoy with a ton of hot sauce.
