Big Mac Inspired Tacos

This interesting combination of a burger with a taco work perfectly together. The tangy thousand-isle dressing with the smashed burger was easy to put together and is easily on my monthly rotation!

Ingredients

For the tortillas:

• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 1 1/2 tsp salt
• 5 tbsp softened butter
• 1 cup hot water

For beef:

• 0.7 kg ground beef (I portioned ~85g per tortilla)
• Salt & Pepper

Thousand-isle sauce:

• 1/2 cup mayonnaise
• 2 tbsp sweet relish
• 2 tbsp ketchup
• 2 tsp mustard
• 1 tsp worchestershire sauce
• 1 tsp white vinegar
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1 tsp sugar
• 1/2 tsp garlic, onion powder
• 1 tbsp diced onion

Additional:

• 2 pickles
• 1 head romaine
• 1/2 white onion
• 3 cups cheddar cheese

Instructions

For tortillas:

1. Whisk flour, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Add in softened butter and mix with your hands to incorporate the butter.
2. Add the hot water to the mixture, and stir until a shaggy dough forms. Transfer to a flat surface and knead for 10 minutes or until a smooth dough forms.
3. Add to a greased bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let rest for an hour.
4. When ready to cook, split the dough into 8 equal parts. Roll out the balls into desired tortilla size.
5. Heat a cast iron pan to medium-high heat. Add a tortilla and cook for 2-3 minutes until the tortilla bubbles, flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes. Set aside.

To cook the tacos:

1. Spread the 85g of ground beef on each tortilla. Season with salt & pepper.
2. In the meantime, dice onion, slice pickles, grate cheese, and shred lettuce.
3. Cook the tacos on medium high heat, meat side down for 3-5 minutes or until it develops a crust. Flip and add the shredded cheese, cover pan and cook for another minute or until crispy.
4. To plate, add sauce and desired toppings to your tacos and enjoy!
