Description

Easy and delicious quesadillas filled with savory ribeye steak, caramelized onions, and melted cheese, ready in under 30 minutes.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ribeye steak or flank steak, thinly sliced
  • 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 2 cups shredded provolone or mozzarella cheese
  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prep the ingredients: Slice the ribeye or flank steak into thin strips and do the same with the onion and bell pepper.
  2. Cook the vegetables: Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and bell peppers. Sauté for about 5 minutes until softened and slightly caramelized.
  3. Cook the steak: In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of olive oil, increasing the heat to medium-high. Add the sliced steak, seasoning with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Cook for about 3-4 minutes.
  4. Combine ingredients: Once the steak is cooked, add the sautéed onions and peppers back into the skillet and mix everything together.
  5. Assemble the quesadillas: Lay two tortillas on a flat surface and spread the steak and vegetable mixture evenly over each tortilla. Top with shredded cheese and cover with another tortilla.
  6. Cook the quesadillas: Heat a clean skillet over medium heat and cook each quesadilla for about 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown.
  7. Slice and serve: Once cooked, slice the quesadillas into wedges and serve with dipping sauces.
