Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 pounds 80/20 ground beef
- 2 large yellow onions, thinly sliced
- 8 small flour tortillas
- 8 slices cheddar cheese or 2 cups shredded cheddar
- 1/2 cup sliced dill pickles
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons ketchup
- 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
- 1 tablespoon pickle relish
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, divided
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
- Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat.
- In a small bowl, stir together the mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard, and pickle relish until smooth to make the burger sauce.
- In a separate bowl, combine the ground beef with Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, 1 teaspoon of the salt, and the black pepper. Mix gently just until combined.
- Add the olive oil and sliced onions to the skillet with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook for 18 to 22 minutes, stirring often, until soft, deeply golden, and caramelised. Transfer to a bowl.
- Divide the seasoned beef into 8 equal portions. Press one portion thinly across one side of each tortilla, spreading it nearly to the edges.
- Place the tortillas beef-side down in the hot skillet, working in batches. Press lightly with a spatula and cook for 2 to 3 minutes until the beef is browned and crisp at the edges.
- Flip each taco, top with cheddar cheese, and cook for 1 to 2 minutes more until the tortilla is golden and the cheese is melted.
- Top each taco with caramelised onions, burger sauce, and sliced dill pickles. Fold gently and serve immediately.
