Steak & Cheese Quesadillas

INGREDENT

• 1 lb (450g) steak (ribeye, sirloin, or flank), thinly sliced
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 small onion, sliced
• 1 small bell pepper, sliced (optional)
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon chili powder (optional)
• Salt and black pepper, to taste
• 4 large flour tortillas
• 1 ½ cups shredded mozzarella or cheddar cheese (or a blend)
• Butter or cooking spray, for the pan

Instructions

1. Cook the Steak:
   Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced steak and cook for 3-5 minutes until browned. Season with garlic powder, chili powder, salt, and pepper.
2. Sauté Veggies:
   Add the sliced onions (and bell peppers, if using) to the same pan. Cook for 4-5 minutes until softened. Remove from heat.
3. Assemble Quesadillas:
   Lay a tortilla flat. On half of it, layer cheese, a portion of the steak and veggie mixture, then more cheese. Fold the tortilla in half to cover.
4. Cook Quesadillas:
   Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Add butter or spray. Cook the quesadilla for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown and the cheese is melted.
5. Serve:
   Cut into wedges and serve with sour cream, salsa, or guacamole.
