Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb (454 g) lean ground beef
- 4 medium tortilla wraps
- 4 slices American cheese
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tbsps ketchup
- Salt to taste
- Pepper to taste
- 1 tomato, sliced
- ¼ head lettuce, shredded
- Sliced onions (optional)
- Pickles (optional)
- Mustard (optional)
- Mayonnaise (optional)
Instructions
- Beef Preparation: Brown ground beef in a skillet over medium heat until completely cooked, eliminating all pink hues. Drain excess fat thoroughly.
- Flavor Infusion: Blend Worcestershire sauce, ketchup, salt, and pepper into the meat. Simmer for two minutes to marry flavors intensely.
- Tortilla Assembly: Place cheese slice centrally on tortilla, creating a rich foundational layer for the wrap.
- Filling Distribution: Spread seasoned beef evenly across cheese, ensuring consistent flavor coverage. Layer crisp lettuce and ripe tomato slices atop the meat for textural contrast.
- Wrapping Technique: Fold tortilla edges inward precisely, creating a compact package that securely contains all ingredients.
- Grilling Process: Heat grill pan to medium-high temperature. Position wrap seam-side down, grilling for 3-4 minutes until achieving a golden-brown, crispy exterior. Rotate carefully to grill opposite side with equal attention.
- Serving Presentation: Slice wrap diagonally to showcase intricate layers. Serve immediately while maintaining optimal temperature and crispness.
Notes
- Meat Preparation Tip: Brown ground beef completely to eliminate any pink areas, ensuring food safety and optimal flavor development.
- Flavor Infusion Strategy: Allow Worcestershire sauce and seasonings to simmer with meat, creating deeper, more complex taste profiles.
- Tortilla Wrapping Technique: Fold edges carefully and tightly to prevent fillings from spilling, maintaining a compact and neat presentation.
- Grilling Precision: Grill each side for 3-4 minutes on medium-high heat, creating a crispy golden exterior while keeping interior ingredients warm and fresh.
