Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup (115g) mayonnaise
  • 2 tbsp (30g) sweet pickle relish
  • 1 tbsp (15g) yellow mustard
  • 1 tsp (2g) paprika
  • 1 tsp (2g) onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp (1g) garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp (3g) sugar
  • 1/4 tsp (1.5g) salt
  • 1 lb (450g) ground beef (80/20 blend)
  • 8 small (6-inch) flour tortillas
  • 8 slices (110g) American cheese
  • 1 cup (30g) shredded iceberg lettuce
  • 1/2 cup (50g) finely diced white onion
  • 16 slices (60g) dill pickle chips

Instructions:

  1. Combine the mayonnaise, relish, mustard, paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, sugar, and salt in a small bowl. Stir until uniform and refrigerate.
  2. Divide the ground beef into 8 equal portions (about 2 oz each). Place a ball of beef on a tortilla and press down firmly with a spatula until the meat is spread thin toward the edges.
  3. Place the beef-side down in a hot skillet over medium-high heat. Press again with the spatula and cook for 2-3 minutes until the beef is mahogany-colored.
  4. Flip the taco so the tortilla touches the pan. Immediately place a slice of cheese on the beef and cook for 1-2 minutes until the tortilla is toasted and cheese is melted.
  5. Remove from heat. Top the melted cheese with shredded lettuce, diced onions, and two pickle chips. Drizzle with the special sauce.
