Equipment

Ingredients

4 pcs mini tortillas
1 cup ground beef
4 cheese slices
2 tbsp pickled cucumbers, sliced
Iceberg lettuce, chopped (optional topping)
2 tbsp liquid from pickled cucumbers
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 tbsp yellow mustard
1 tsp white vinegar
1/2 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp sugar
Cooking spray

Instructions

Gather the ingredients for your Big Mac tacos. Lightly grease a frying pan, then preheat over medium-high heat.
To make the sauce, combine the mayo, pickle juice, mustard, vinegar, paprika, onion powder, salt, garlic powder, and sugar in a small bowl and set aside.
Spread the ground beef thinly over the tortilla, then place them onto the smoking hot pan, beef side down. Press the Big Mac tortilla down so the meat constantly touches the pan, and cook for 2 to 3 minutes until the beef turns brown.
Lower the heat, then flip the tortilla to toast it. Place a slice of cheese over the meat and cover the frying pan for 2 minutes to let the cheese melt.
Remove the pan from heat and repeat with the remaining ingredients. Add pickles and lettuce on top.
Top with the burger sauce, and you're done!

Notes

For a golden brown, juicy beef patty that won't slide off the tortilla, use a thin layer of ground meat and make sure your pan is hot. You can also use the bottom of another pan to really flatten the beef into the pan as you cook it.
Use easy-melting cheese slices, such as American, cheddar, mozzarella, or provolone, so the tortilla doesn’t toast faster than the cheese melts.
Big Mac tacos are best enjoyed immediately, but you can store the leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat leftover tacos in the pan before serving!
