Spicy Lime Steak Quesadillas with Bell Peppers
Savor the smoky zest of thinly sliced steak marinated in lime and Cajun spices, complemented by the crisp sweetness of bell peppers and red onions. Melted reduced-fat cheese and the hearty whole wheat tortilla bring this dish together for a satisfying, flavor-packed meal that's as wholesome as it is delicious.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Lean Sirloin Steak
1 Whole Wheat Tortilla
½ cup diced Red Bell Pepper
¼ cup diced Red Onion
1 oz Reduced-Fat Shredded Cheese
Juice of ½ Lime
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Dash of Cajun Seasoning
PREPARATION
Begin by slicing the steak thinly and marinate it with the juice of half a lime, a dash of Cajun seasoning, and a drizzle of olive oil. Let it rest for at least 15 minutes to absorb the flavors.
While the steak marinates, dice the red bell pepper and red onion.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and sauté the diced bell pepper and onion for about 3-4 minutes until they are slightly softened but still retain a bit of crunch. Remove them from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the marinated steak and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the steak is cooked to your preferred doneness.
Lower the heat and return the vegetables to the skillet. Place the whole wheat tortilla over the mixture, sprinkle the reduced-fat cheese evenly on top, and allow the cheese to melt.
Fold the tortilla in half to encase the filling. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes on each side to achieve a crisp exterior, pressing gently with a spatula.
Slice the quesadilla into wedges and serve warm.
