Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound 80/20 ground beef
- 1 medium yellow onion, finely diced
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons ketchup
- 1 teaspoon white vinegar
- 1 tablespoon pickle relish
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 6 large burrito-sized flour tortillas
- 2 cups shredded iceberg or romaine lettuce
- 6 slices American cheese
Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, ketchup, white vinegar, pickle relish, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder. Whisk until smooth and set aside.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef and diced onion, breaking up the beef with a spatula. Season with salt and pepper.
- Cook the beef mixture until browned and no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess grease if desired, but leaving some adds flavor.
- While the beef cooks, prepare the shredded lettuce and have tortillas and cheese ready.
- Warm the tortillas in a dry pan for 15-20 seconds per side or microwave for 30 seconds wrapped in a damp paper towel to make them pliable.
- Lay a warm tortilla flat and place a slice of cheese on it. Top with a generous portion of the beef mixture and a handful of shredded lettuce.
- Drizzle 2-3 tablespoons of the special sauce over the filling.
- Fold the sides of the tortilla inward and roll tightly from the bottom. Slice in half diagonally and serve immediately.
Notes
Warm tortillas are crucial to prevent tearing. Let the special sauce sit for 10 minutes before using to allow flavors to meld. For a lighter option, substitute ground beef with ground turkey or chicken. For gluten-free, use corn tortillas.
