Here’s a simple and tasty Steak & Cheese Quesadillas recipe for you:
Ingredients (Serves 2–3)
- 250g (8 oz) steak (sirloin, ribeye, or flank), thinly sliced
- 1 tbsp olive oil or butter
- 1 small onion, thinly sliced
- 1 small bell pepper (any color), thinly sliced (optional)
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- Salt & black pepper, to taste
- 4 medium flour tortillas
- 1½ cups shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or a mix)
- Sour cream, salsa, or guacamole for serving
Instructions
- Cook the steak
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
- Season steak with garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
- Cook for 3–4 minutes until browned but still juicy. Remove and set aside.
- Sauté vegetables (optional)
- In the same skillet, cook onions (and bell peppers if using) for 3–4 minutes until softened.
- Assemble quesadillas
- Lay one tortilla in the skillet (over medium heat).
- Sprinkle half the cheese over it, then add steak and vegetables.
- Add the rest of the cheese, then top with a second tortilla.
- Cook until golden
- Press gently with a spatula and cook 2–3 minutes per side until golden brown and the cheese is melted.
- Serve
- Slice into wedges and serve hot with sour cream, salsa, or guacamole.
If you like, I can also give you a Philly Cheesesteak-style quesadilla version with melted provolone and sautéed onions & peppers—it’s even cheesier. Would you like me to write that one too?
