INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Sirloin Steak
1 medium Red Bell Pepper
1 Whole Wheat Tortilla
1 oz Reduced-Fat Cheddar Cheese
1 tsp Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat with 1 teaspoon of olive oil.
Slice the lean sirloin steak thinly against the grain and season lightly with salt and pepper if desired.
Thinly slice the red bell pepper into strips.
Sear the steak in the skillet for about 2-3 minutes per side until it develops crispy edges and is cooked to your liking. Remove the steak and set aside.
In the same skillet, quickly sauté the bell pepper strips for 1-2 minutes to soften them slightly while retaining their crunch.
Lay out the whole wheat tortilla on a clean work surface. Evenly spread the cooked steak and bell pepper strips over half of the tortilla, then sprinkle the reduced-fat cheddar cheese on top.
Fold the tortilla over to encase the fillings and return the quesadilla to the skillet. Cook over medium heat for 2-3 minutes per side until the tortilla is crispy and the cheese is melted.
Remove from the skillet, slice into wedges, and serve immediately.
