INGREDIENTS
3 oz Flank Steak
1 Whole Wheat Tortilla
1/2 cup sliced Red Bell Pepper
1/2 cup sliced Green Bell Pepper
1/4 cup shredded Reduced-Fat Cheddar Cheese
1 Tbsp Fresh Lime Juice
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/2 tsp Cayenne Pepper
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Thinly slice the flank steak against the grain and season with cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper.
In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat and sear the steak slices for about 2-3 minutes per side until browned and cooked to your desired doneness. Remove the steak and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the sliced red and green bell peppers and sauté for 3-4 minutes until they are slightly softened.
Reduce the heat to medium-low. Place the whole wheat tortilla in the skillet and sprinkle half of the shredded cheese evenly over one half of the tortilla.
Layer the sautéed bell peppers and cooked steak over the cheese, then drizzle the fresh lime juice on top.
Top with the remaining cheese, fold the tortilla in half, and gently press down with a spatula.
Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes on each side until the tortilla is crisp and the cheese has melted.
Remove from the skillet, slice into wedges, and serve warm.
