Ingredients
Quesadilla
- 4 flour tortillas
- 1.5 lb ground beef
- 1 tbsp Lawrys Seasoning Salt
- 8 slices American Cheese
- 2 cups shredded lettuce
- 1/3 cup sliced pickles
- 1/3 cup onion diced
Burger Sauce
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tbsp dill pickle relish
- 1 tbsp onion minced
- 1 tbsp ketchup
- 1 tsp mustard
- 1/2 tsp vinegar
- 1/2 tsp sugar
- 1/4 tsp paprika
- 1/8 tsp garlic powder
- 1/8 tsp salt
- 1/8 tsp black pepper
Instructions
- For the Burger Sauce - Earlier in the day, mix all of the sauce ingredients together in a small bowl and set aside in the refrigerator. You might want to double the sauce recipe if you want to serve quesadillas with a side of extra sauce for dipping!1/4 cup mayonnaise, 1 tbsp dill pickle relish, 1 tbsp onion, 1 tbsp ketchup, 1 tsp mustard, 1/2 tsp vinegar, 1/2 tsp sugar, 1/4 tsp paprika, 1/8 tsp garlic powder, 1/8 tsp salt, 1/8 tsp black pepper
- Divide the ground beef into 4 portions and spread one portion onto each tortilla. Spread it thin across whole tortilla. Sprinkle each with Lawry’s.4 flour tortillas, 1.5 lb ground beef, 1 tbsp Lawrys Seasoning Salt
- Preheat the grill to medium heat.
- Squirt oil on the grill and add the onions. Sauté for 2 minutes and move to the side of griddle.1/3 cup onion
- Raise to medium-high heat and add the tortillas to the grill - meat side down. Cook for about 4-5 minutes or until beef is cooked through.
- Scrape underneath the tortillas to loosen the beef and then flip each tortilla. The burgers will have shrunk - don't be alarmed - you're folding it - so there is still plenty of meat!
- Add 2 slices of American cheese to each burger and let cook for another 2 minutes - covering with a cloche food cover until so you get that melty cheese!8 slices American Cheese
- Turn the heat off on the grill. Remove tortillas and lay on paper towels briefly to absorb any excess oil. Then move to a cutting board or cookie sheet.
- To make quesadillas, add cooked onions to each tortilla. Then drizzle with special big mac sauce you made earlier over whole tortilla. Add pickles and lettuce to half of the tortilla.2 cups shredded lettuce, 1/3 cup sliced pickles
- Use spatula to fold over the untopped half of the tortilla to make your quesadilla.
- Remove quesadillas and serve with extra dipping sauce
