Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef (80/20 blend)
- 6 small flour tortillas
- 1 ½ cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 1 cup shredded lettuce
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ cup burger sauce (mayo, ketchup, mustard, and pickle juice blend)
Instructions
- Heat a cast iron skillet or griddle over medium-high heat until hot.
- Season the ground beef with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Divide into 6 equal balls.
- Lightly oil the skillet and place a tortilla on it. Press a ball of beef onto the tortilla, flattening it to cover the surface.
- Sprinkle cheddar cheese on top of the beef and press slightly to help it melt into the meat.
- Cook for 3–4 minutes, then flip carefully and cook another 2 minutes until the tortilla is golden and crispy.
- Remove from the skillet and top with chopped onions, shredded lettuce, and a drizzle of burger sauce.
- Fold the tacos slightly and serve warm with extra sauce or toppings of choice.
Notes
- Use freshly shredded cheese for better melt and texture.
- Toast tortillas lightly before adding beef for added crunch.
- Keep tacos warm in a low oven if making a large batch.
- Reheat leftovers in a skillet for best results.
