Ingredients

  • BIG MAC SAUCE:
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 4 tablespoons pickle relish, drained
  • 3 tablespoons ketchup
  • 2 tablespoons dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1/2 tablespoon white vinegar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon white pepper
  • FOR ASSEMBLY:
  • 12 mini flour tortillas
  • 1 pound 80/20 ground beef
  • salt, to taste
  • black pepper, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, split in half
  • 12 slices American Cheese
  • 1 white onion, diced
  • dill pickle chips, according to taste
  • shredded iceberg lettuce, according to taste

Method

  1. Mix the mayonnaise, relish, ketchup, dijon mustard, sugar, white vinegar, paprika, onion powder, garlic powder and white pepper in a small bowl and set the sauce aside.
  2. Press about 1/4 cup of ground beef onto each tortilla, spreading it flat all the way to the edges, and season the meat with salt and black pepper.
  3. Heat a little of the vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the tortillas meat-side down, two or three at a time, for 2 to 3 minutes until the beef forms a brown crust.
  4. Flip each taco, lower the heat, lay a slice of American cheese over the patty, cover the pan and cook 2 to 3 minutes more until the cheese melts and the tortilla turns golden and crisp.
  5. Top each taco with lettuce, onion, pickles and a spoonful of the sauce, and serve them warm.
