Ingredients
Scale
Beef Mixture
- 1 lb ground beef (preferably ground chuck with 15–25% fat)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
Cheese
- ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
- ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Garlic Butter
- ¼ cup butter, melted
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
Other
- 4 large flour tortillas
- Optional: sliced pickles for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven. Set your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
- Cook the Beef. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook until it is fully browned, breaking it up with a spatula as it cooks. This should take about 7 to 8 minutes.
- Season the Beef. Stir in Worcestershire sauce, onion powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper into the cooked beef. Mix everything thoroughly and then remove from heat. Let the seasoned beef cool slightly to avoid making the tortillas soggy.
- Prepare the Garlic Butter. In a small bowl, combine the melted butter with the minced garlic. Stir well to create a fragrant garlic butter mixture. Set it aside until ready to use.
- Assemble the Rollups. Lay the flour tortillas flat on a clean surface. Evenly spread the cooled beef mixture over each tortilla, then sprinkle the shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheeses on top of the beef.
- Roll and Bake. Roll each tortilla up tightly, tucking the sides in as you go to enclose the filling securely. Place the rollups seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Generously brush the tops with the garlic butter mixture. Bake in the preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes until they are golden brown and the cheese inside is melted and bubbly.
- Serve. Remove the rollups from the oven and let them cool slightly to allow the cheese to set. Slice into pinwheels if desired. Garnish with sliced pickles for added zest and serve warm.
Notes
- Use ground chuck with 15–25% fat content for the best balance of juiciness and flavor without excess grease.
- Do not overfill the tortillas to ensure easy rolling and prevent them from bursting while baking.
- Brush the garlic butter generously to achieve a flavorful, golden crust on the rollups.
- Sliced pickles add a nice tangy contrast but are optional according to preference.
- Let the rollups cool slightly before slicing to maintain their shape and avoid cheese spill-out.
