Instructions
This recipe is all about simplicity and flavor. Here’s how you can bring these wraps to life:
- In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the ground beef, salt, pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder. Cook until the meat is browned and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes. Stir occasionally to break up the meat.
- While the beef is cooking, prepare the special sauce by combining mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard, white vinegar, and paprika in a small bowl. Mix until well blended and set aside.
- Once the beef is cooked, remove from heat and drain any excess fat. Let it cool slightly while you prepare the tortillas.
- Lay out the tortillas on a clean surface. Evenly distribute the cooked beef, shredded lettuce, diced pickles, shredded cheddar cheese, and chopped onion onto each tortilla.
- Drizzle the special sauce over the fillings. Be generous — the sauce is what brings everything together!
- Roll up each tortilla tightly, folding in the sides as you go to ensure the fillings are secured.
- Heat a clean skillet over medium heat and place the wraps seam-side down. Cook each side for about 2 minutes until the tortillas are golden and slightly crispy.
- Remove from heat, slice each wrap in half, and serve immediately.
