Description
Recreate the iconic fast-food flavor of a Big Mac in a handheld, easy-to-eat wrap format. This quick weeknight dinner combines savory beef, crunchy lettuce, and tangy special sauce in a large flour tortilla.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound ground beef (80/20 blend)
- 4 large flour tortillas (burrito-sized)
- 2 cups shredded iceberg lettuce
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 small white onion, finely diced
- 2 tablespoons sweet pickle relish
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
- 1 teaspoon white vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, yellow mustard, white vinegar, garlic powder, onion powder, sugar, and paprika. Whisk until smooth and set aside.
- Finely shred the iceberg lettuce and dice the white onion. Place them in separate bowls.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and break it up with a spatula. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for 5-7 minutes until browned with crispy edges. Drain excess fat if necessary.
- While the beef cooks, warm the tortillas in a microwave (20 seconds wrapped in a damp paper towel) or a dry skillet (30 seconds per side) to make them pliable.
- Lay a warm tortilla flat. Spread a generous layer of special sauce in the center.
- Add a layer of shredded lettuce, followed by the cooked beef, shredded cheddar cheese, pickle relish, and diced onion.
- Fold the bottom of the tortilla over the filling, fold in the sides, and roll tightly from the bottom up.
- Cut the wraps in half diagonally and serve immediately.
Notes
Use 80/20 ground beef for best flavor and juiciness. Warm tortillas before assembling to prevent cracking. Let the sauce sit for 10 minutes before using to allow flavors to meld. Do not overstuff the wraps to prevent bursting.
