Prepare the Big Mac sauce
Mix all the ingredients together, and set aside.
Prepare the Smash tacos
- Divide the ground beef into six equal portions, and work each portion into a round patty.
- Place the rounded patty on a tortilla, and press it down lightly to flatten or “smash” it.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a nonstick frying pan over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the tortilla (patty-side down) to the pan. Cook until browned and cooked through, 2-3 minutes.
- Brush the back of the tortilla with a touch of olive oil, and carefully flip it over. Add a slice of cheese and continue cooking, allowing the tortilla to toast, and the cheese to melt, 1-2 minutes.
- Remove from heat, plate, and top with shredded lettuce, pickles, chopped onions, salt and pepper (to taste), and the homemade Big Mac sauce. Gently fold into a taco. Enjoy!
