- Add ground beef to the skillet along with chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, oregano, and 2 tsp salt. Allow to sear for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add 1/3 cup vegetable stock and the corn kernels and continue to cook until the ground beef is cooked through, about 3 more minutes.
- Remove beef mixture from pan and place in a bowl. Add the onions to the skillet and sweat on medium-high heat for 5 minutes
- Add the garlic to the pan, tomato paste, chipotles, and sweet potatoes to the pan and cook for another 5 minutes.
- Place sweet potato mixture and 2/3 cup vegetable stock in a blender and puree, adding more stock if necessary to make the sauce smooth. Season with remaining teaspoon of salt.
- Wrap tortillas in a damp paper towel and microwave for 30 seconds to make them pliable. Fill each tortilla with about a 1/3 cup of beef mixture and roll up tightly before placing on a small baking or casserole dish.
