INGREDIENTS
4 oz lean steak (Top Sirloin)
1 Tbsp olive oil
1 Tbsp lime juice
1/2 cup diced red bell pepper
1 whole wheat tortilla (50g)
1/4 cup reduced-fat cheddar cheese, shredded
Salt & pepper to taste
PREPARATION
In a small bowl, combine lime juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper to create the marinade.
Place the steak in a shallow dish, pour the marinade over it, and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes, turning occasionally.
Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat and cook the steak for about 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness. Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing thinly.
In the same pan, lightly sauté the diced red bell peppers for 2-3 minutes until softened.
Place the whole wheat tortilla on a clean surface. Sprinkle half of the shredded reduced-fat cheddar cheese on one half of the tortilla, add a layer of sliced steak, and distribute the sautéed bell peppers evenly.
Fold the tortilla over to form a quesadilla. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and cook the quesadilla for 2-3 minutes per side until the cheese is melted and the tortilla is golden and crisp.
Slice into wedges and serve warm.
