Enjoy a vibrant and satisfying quesadilla featuring spicy lime-marinated steak, crisp bell peppers, and a melty layer of reduced-fat cheddar nestled between a whole wheat tortilla. This dish is full of bold flavor and perfect for a balanced meal any time of day.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Top Sirloin Steak
1 whole wheat tortilla (approx 50g)
1/2 medium red bell pepper
1/4 cup reduced-fat cheddar cheese
1 tbsp lime juice
1 tsp olive oil
1 tsp chili powder
1 tsp cumin
Salt and black pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Slice the steak against the grain into thin strips. In a bowl, combine the lime juice, chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper.
Marinate the steak strips in the lime-spice mixture for at least 15 minutes.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the marinated steak strips until they are browned and cooked to your liking, about 3-4 minutes per side.
Thinly slice the red bell pepper. Add the bell pepper to the skillet with the steak and sauté for an additional 2 minutes until slightly softened.
Place the whole wheat tortilla in a clean, preheated non-stick skillet. Evenly distribute the cooked steak and bell pepper mixture over half of the tortilla.
Sprinkle the reduced-fat cheddar cheese over the filling, then fold the tortilla over to create a half-moon shape.
Cook the quesadilla for 2-3 minutes on each side or until the tortilla is golden brown and the cheese has melted.
Remove from heat, slice into wedges, and serve immediately.
