Feel free to adjust the amount of steak, vegetables, and cheese to suit your personal taste. For a spicier kick, add a pinch of chili powder or a few slices of jalapeño to the filling. To ensure even cooking, use a non-stick skillet or lightly grease your skillet with cooking spray before adding the quesadillas. For a vegetarian option, substitute the steak with black beans or sautéed mushrooms.

Sprinkle half of the cooked steak, half of the sautéed onion and pepper mixture, and half of the shredded Mexican cheese blend evenly over the tortilla. Top with a second tortilla, oil-side up, and gently press down with a spatula to help seal the layers.
03 Step
Recipe View Cook the quesadilla over medium heat until the cheese is melted and the tortillas are golden brown and crispy (about 3-4 minutes per side).
04 Step
Recipe View Remove the quesadilla from the skillet and let it cool slightly before cutting it into wedges. Repeat the process with the remaining ingredients to create the second quesadilla. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings, such as salsa, guacamole, and sour cream.
