Big Mac Taco with Homemade French Fries

Made the viral Big Mac tacos for dinner tonight  I had all the condiments so for everything else it came out to around $12.
I took some ground beef and seasoned it with salt and pepper, took a tortilla and smashed some of the ground beef onto it. I cooked both sides, added American cheese, then topped it with chopped romaine, onions, and sauce.
For the sauce I used mayo, dijon mustard, sweet relish, a little bit of ketchup, smoked paprika, onion powder, and black pepper
I served with homemade french fries

  • 2 tablespoons ketchup

Instructions:

Big Mac Tacos:

1. Season and Cook the Ground Beef:
   • In a skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef, breaking it apart with a spoon, until it’s fully cooked and browned.
   • Season with salt and pepper to taste. Drain excess fat if necessary.
2. Prepare the Sauce:
   • In a small bowl, mix together mayo, dijon mustard, sweet relish, ketchup, smoked paprika, onion powder, and black pepper. Set aside.
3. Assemble the Tacos:
   • Heat a clean skillet over medium heat. Place a tortilla on the skillet and spoon a portion of the seasoned ground beef onto the center of the tortilla.
   • Flatten the beef with a spatula and cook for a couple of minutes until it starts to brown.
   • Place a slice of American cheese on top of the beef and let it melt.
   • Remove the taco from the skillet and top with chopped romaine lettuce, diced onions, and a generous drizzle of the prepared sauce.
4. Serve:
   • Repeat the process with the remaining tortillas and ingredients.
   • Serve the Big Mac Tacos hot, with a side of homemade french fries.

Homemade French Fries:

1. Preheat the Oven:
   • Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
2. Prepare the Potatoes:
   • Peel the potatoes and cut them into thin fries. Pat them dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
3. Season and Toss:
   • In a large bowl, toss the potato fries with olive oil, salt, and paprika (if using), ensuring they are well coated.
4. Bake:
   • Spread the fries in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Make sure they are not crowded to allow them to crisp up.
   • Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping the fries halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.
5. Serve:
   • Remove the fries from the oven and let them cool slightly. Serve the hot and crispy homemade french fries alongside the Big Mac Tacos.
