Prep Time10 minutes
Cook Time15 minutes
Total Time25 minutes
Servings: 4 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground beef (80–90% lean)
  • 1 small yellow onion, finely diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced (optional but recommended)
  • 1 tablespoon ketchup
  • 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon salt, or to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika (optional for a grilled flavor)
  • 6 large flour tortillas (burrito-size)
  • 6 slices cheddar or American cheese (or shredded cheddar)
  • 1/2 cup dill pickle chips, chopped if preferred
  • 1 cup shredded lettuce
  • 1 medium tomato, diced (optional)
  • Cooking spray or a little oil for crisping
  • Optional sauces: burger sauce, mayo, extra ketchup/mustard, or a spicy aioli

Instructions

  • Cook the beef: Heat a skillet over medium-high. Add ground beef and diced onion. Cook, breaking up the meat, until browned and cooked through, 6–8 minutes. Drain excess fat if needed.
  • Season the mixture: Stir in garlic, ketchup, mustard, Worcestershire, salt, pepper, and smoked paprika. Cook 1–2 minutes to let flavors meld. Taste and adjust seasoning.
  • Prep your station: Lay out tortillas. Place a slice of cheese in the center of each. Spoon about 1/2 cup of the beef mixture over the cheese.
  • Add fixings: Top with pickles, a sprinkle of lettuce, and tomatoes if using. Add a light drizzle of your favorite sauce. Don’t overfill or the wrap won’t seal well.
  • Fold the wraps: Fold the sides in, then roll tightly from the bottom up to form a sealed burrito-style wrap. Press gently to secure.
  • Preheat the air fryer: Set to 380°F (193°C) for 3 minutes. Lightly spray the basket and the tops of the wraps with cooking spray for extra crispness.
  • Air fry: Place wraps seam-side down in a single layer. Cook at 380°F for 6–8 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crisp and cheese is melted.
  • Serve: Let rest 2 minutes before slicing in half. Serve with extra pickles, a side salad, or fries, plus your favorite dipping sauce.
