INGREDIENTS
3 ounces Lean Sirloin Steak (~85g)
1/4 cup Black Beans (~60g)
1 Whole Wheat Tortilla (6-inch, ~40g)
1/4 medium Red Bell Pepper (~30g)
1/8 medium Onion (~15g)
0.5 teaspoon Olive Oil (~2.3g)
1 ounce Low-fat Shredded Cheese (~28g)
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Season the lean sirloin steak with salt and pepper. In a hot skillet, add 0.5 teaspoon olive oil and sear the steak over medium-high heat until it reaches your preferred doneness, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove the steak from the skillet and let it rest.
In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and diced red bell pepper. Sauté until softened, about 3 minutes. Stir in the black beans and heat through for another 1-2 minutes.
Thinly slice the rested steak into strips.
Heat a separate non-stick skillet over medium heat. Place the whole wheat tortilla in the skillet. Evenly spread the steak strips, sautéed vegetables, and black beans over one half of the tortilla. Sprinkle the low-fat shredded cheese on top.
Fold the tortilla over to form a quesadilla. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the bottom is golden and crispy, then flip carefully and cook the other side until the cheese melts and the tortilla is crispy.
Remove from heat, slice into wedges, and serve warm.
