INGREDIENTS
3 oz Lean Steak
1/2 cup Canned Black Beans, rinsed
1 medium Whole Wheat Tortilla
1/2 medium Red Bell Pepper
1 small Yellow Onion
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/2 tsp Ground Cumin
1/2 tsp Chili Powder
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Thinly slice the lean steak against the grain and season with salt, pepper, ground cumin, and chili powder.
In a skillet over medium-high heat, add olive oil and sauté sliced onions and red bell pepper until soft and slightly caramelized, about 4-5 minutes.
Add the seasoned steak to the skillet and cook until browned and slightly charred, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove from heat.
In a separate bowl, lightly mash the black beans with a fork, leaving some whole for texture.
Lay the whole wheat tortilla on a flat surface. Spread the mashed black beans evenly, then layer the cooked steak and sautéed vegetables over the beans.
Fold the tortilla in half to form a quesadilla.
Heat a clean non-stick skillet over medium heat. Place the quesadilla in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until crispy and golden.
Remove from heat, cut into wedges, and serve immediately.
