Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 pounds ground beef
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 12 street tacos flour tortillas (5-inch wide)
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup shredded lettuce
  • 2 tomatoes chopped
  • 24 dill pickle slices chopped
  • 1 cup big mac sauce

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 250F.
  • Combine ground beef, kosher salt and black pepper. Roll into 12 balls.
  • Press one beef ball onto one side of each tortilla.
  • Preheat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat.
  • Place tortillas, meat side down, in the skillet and press down and smash with something heavy, such as another skillet. You will have to do this step in batches.
  • Cook until the beef is browned, about 3 minutes.
  • Turn, top with shredded cheese, and transfer to a baking sheet. Place the tortillas in the oven as they come off of the skillet. This will melt the cheese and keep them warm while you are cooking the remaining tortillas in batches.
  • When the cheese is melted, remove the tacos from the oven and top with shredded lettuce, tomatoes and pickles and drizzle with sauce.
  • Serve your burger tacos open faced or fold like a taco and enjoy!

Notes

This recipe makes 4 servings, 3 taco burgers per serving.
