Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb (450 g) ground beef (80/20 preferred)
  • 4 large flour tortillas (burrito-sized)
  • 1 ½ cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese (about 150 g or 5.3 oz)
  • 1 cup shredded iceberg lettuce
  • ½ cup diced tomatoes (about 75 g or 2.6 oz)
  • ¼ cup sliced pickles
  • 1 small yellow onion, finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons ketchup
  • 1 teaspoon mustard
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

Instructions

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the finely chopped yellow onion and sauté for about 2 minutes until softened and fragrant.
  2. Add the ground beef to the skillet. Break it apart and cook until browned, about 6-8 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper. Drain excess fat if necessary, then reduce heat to low to keep warm.
  3. In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, ketchup, and mustard. Stir well and set aside.
  4. Lay one large flour tortilla on a clean surface. Spread about 1 tablespoon of the sauce mixture in the center.
  5. Spoon approximately ¼ of the cooked beef over the sauce. Sprinkle with ⅓ cup shredded cheddar cheese. Top with shredded iceberg lettuce, diced tomatoes, and a few pickle slices.
  6. Fold the edges of the tortilla up and over the filling, folding in the sides to create a tight wrap. Use a little extra sauce or cheese to help seal the edges if needed.
  7. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in the skillet over medium heat. Place the wrapped side down in the pan and cook for 3-4 minutes until golden brown and crispy. Flip and cook the other side for 2-3 minutes until cheese is melted.
  8. Remove from pan, let sit for a minute, then slice in half if desired. Repeat with remaining wraps.

Notes

Use fresh, firm iceberg lettuce for better crunch. Avoid overstuffing the wrap to prevent bursting. Cook wraps over medium heat to get a golden crisp without burning. Drain excess fat from beef to avoid soggy wraps. For gluten-free option, use large corn tortillas carefully. Leftovers can be reheated in a skillet to restore crispness.
