Preparation

Heat butter or tallow in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef, breaking it up as it cooks. Season with chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Cook until fully browned and no longer pink. Set aside to cool slightly.

Lay the iceberg lettuce leaf flat. In the center, layer: cooked beef, shredded cheddar, sour cream, salsa or chopped tomato, and (Optional) pickled jalapeños.

Carefully fold the sides of the lettuce inward over the filling like a burrito or wrap. If the leaf is too thin, use a second leaf to reinforce the base.

Place on a plate, drizzle lightly with olive oil, and garnish with herbs if desired. Eat immediately for the best texture.
