Description
These Big Mac smash burger tacos bring all the flavor of a classic Big Mac into crispy, cheesy tortillas topped with homemade burger sauce.
Ingredients
- 1 pound lean ground beef
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 8 small flour tortillas
- 8 slices cheddar cheese or American-style cheese
- 1 cup shredded iceberg lettuce
- ¼ cup diced white onion
- 12 sliced dill pickles
- ⅓ cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon ketchup
- 1 teaspoon yellow mustard
- 1 teaspoon sweet pickle relish
- ¼ teaspoon onion powder
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon white vinegar
Instructions
- Whisk all sauce ingredients in a small bowl until smooth. Set aside.
- Divide ground beef into 8 equal portions.
- Press each beef portion thin onto one side of a tortilla, covering most of the surface. Sprinkle lightly with salt and black pepper.
- Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Place the tortilla beef-side down and cook 2–3 minutes, pressing gently until browned and the beef reaches 160°F.
- Flip, add a slice of cheese, and cook 30–45 seconds until the cheese melts and the tortilla turns golden and crisp.
- Repeat with remaining tortillas.
- Top each taco with shredded lettuce, diced onion, pickle slices, and a spoonful of Big Mac sauce.
- Fold and serve immediately while warm and crispy.
Notes
- Use a sturdy spatula to press the beef flat while cooking.
- Ensure the skillet is hot enough for a good sear on the beef.
