Loaded Steak Quesadillas Recipe

These quesadillas are packed with flavor and protein. Tender steak, melted cheese, and sautéed vegetables come together in a crispy tortilla for a satisfying and delicious meal.

Ingredients:

  • 2 large flour tortillas
  • 1 pound flank steak, thinly sliced and marinated
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 onion, thinly sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the steak: Grill or sauté the marinated steak until cooked to your desired level of doneness. Slice it into thin strips.
  2. Sauté the vegetables: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the red bell pepper, onion, and garlic. Sauté until softened and slightly browned.
  3. Assemble the quesadillas: Place one tortilla on a flat surface. Top with half of the steak, half of the shredded cheeses, and half of the sautéed vegetables. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  4. Fold and cook: Fold the tortilla over the filling, pressing down to seal. Repeat with the second tortilla.
  5. Cook: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Place one quesadilla in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy. Repeat with the second quesadilla.
  6. Serve: Cut the quesadillas into wedges and serve immediately. Enjoy with your favorite dipping sauce, such as salsa or guacamole.

Tips:

  • For a spicier quesadilla, add jalapenos or hot sauce to the filling.
  • You can use any type of cheese you prefer, such as Colby Jack or Pepper Jack.
  • For a vegetarian option, substitute the steak with grilled or sautéed vegetables.
  • Serve with a side salad or chips and guacamole.
