Description
Philly Cheese Steak Quesadillas offer a flavorful twist on the classic, featuring seasoned steak, sautéed onions, and melted cheese wrapped in a crispy tortilla for a quick and satisfying meal.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound flank steak, sliced thinly
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 medium onion, sliced
- 1 green bell pepper, diced (optional)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup shredded provolone or mozzarella cheese
- 4 large flour tortillas
- Sour cream and salsa for serving (optional)
Instructions
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add olive oil. Add sliced flank steak, season with salt and pepper. Cook until browned, about 3-4 minutes.
- Reduce heat to medium. Add sliced onions (and bell peppers, if using) to the skillet. Sauté until soft and fragrant, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
- Place a tortilla in the skillet over low heat. Layer half of the tortilla with steak mixture and cheese. Fold tortilla into a half-moon.
- Cook on one side until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook the other side until cheese is melted and tortilla is crispy.
- Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling.
- Cut quesadillas into wedges and serve warm with sour cream and salsa for dipping.
Notes
- Cut steak against the grain for tender bites.
- Experiment with different cheeses like cheddar or pepper jack.
- Avoid overstuffing the tortillas to prevent mess.
- Keep cooked quesadillas warm in a preheated oven while preparing the rest.
