Summer Smash Tacos
A fusion of tacos & burgers, perfect for a summer bbq.
Ingredients
4 Fajita Tortillas or La Tapatia Corn Tortillas
1 lb ground beef
1 teaspoon Kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup chopped tomato
1/4 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup chopped cilantro
1 cup chopped radish
2 jalapenos chopped/sliced
2 cups shredded jack cheese
1 cup shredded cabbage or lettuce.
Directions
1. Combine ground beef, salt, pepper, and 1/4 cup cilantro in a medium bowl. Set aside.
2. Heat a griddle or flat grill over medium-high heat.
3. Combine tomato, onion, 1/4 cup cilantro, and jalapeno (if using) in a small bowl.
4. Divide beef into 4 meatball size portions and place them on the hot griddle. Lightly press down but do not flatten yet.
5. Cook for 3 minutes.
6. Place a tortilla on top of each beef portion and press down to flatten the beef into the shape and size of the tortilla.
7. Cook until tortilla is golden-brown, and beef is cooked through, about 3 more minutes.

9. Remove from the griddle, top with tomato mixture, cabbage, and radish.
10. Fold in half like a taco. Serve immediately.
