A Cheesesteak Quesadilla combines the classic flavors of a Philly cheesesteak with the deliciousness of a quesadilla. Here’s a simple recipe:
Cheesesteak Quesadilla
Ingredients:
- 1 lb beef sirloin or ribeye, thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 large onion, thinly sliced
- 1 large green bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 2 cups shredded provolone cheese (or mozzarella)
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce (optional)
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce (optional)
- 2 tablespoons butter
Instructions:
- Cook the Beef:
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add the sliced beef, season with salt and pepper, and cook until browned, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
- Cook the Vegetables:
- In the same skillet, add onions and bell peppers. Cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add garlic and cook for an additional minute.
- Return the beef to the skillet, and add Worcestershire sauce and soy sauce if using. Stir to combine and heat through. Adjust seasoning if needed.
- Assemble the Quesadilla:
- Heat a separate skillet over medium heat and melt 1/2 tablespoon of butter.
- Place one tortilla in the skillet and sprinkle half of the cheese evenly over the tortilla.
- Spread half of the beef and vegetable mixture on top of the cheese.
- Sprinkle the remaining cheese over the beef mixture and top with another tortilla.
- Cook the Quesadilla:
- Cook until the bottom tortilla is golden brown and the cheese is melted, about 3-4 minutes.
- Carefully flip the quesadilla and cook the other side until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes.
- Serve:
- Remove from the skillet and let cool for a minute before slicing into wedges. Serve with your favorite dipping sauces or condiments.
