Description

A fun twist on smash burgers and tacos, combining juicy beef with delicious toppings and a creamy homemade sauce.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 flour tortillas (6 inches)
  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • Salt and pepper (to taste)
  • 1 tablespoon neutral oil (vegetable or canola)
  • 4 slices American cheese (or preferred cheese)
  • Diced onion (for topping)
  • Dill pickle chips (for topping)
  • Shredded iceberg lettuce (for topping)
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise (for sauce)
  • 2 tablespoons pickle relish (for sauce)
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard (for sauce)
  • 1 teaspoon sugar (for sauce)
  • 1 teaspoon white vinegar (for sauce)
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika (for sauce)
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder (for sauce)
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder (for sauce)

Instructions

  1. Divide the ground beef into 4 equal portions to create even patties.
  2. Season each portion generously with salt and pepper.

  6. Repeat with remaining tortillas and beef.
  7. Mix mayonnaise, pickle relish, Dijon mustard, sugar, white vinegar, paprika, onion powder, and garlic powder in a bowl to make the sauce.
  8. Spread sauce on each taco and top with diced onions, pickle chips, and shredded lettuce.
