Carne Asada Quesadillas with Guacamole
Tender flank steak seared with citrus and spices, folded into a toasted tortilla with melted cheese and served with creamy hand-mashed guacamole.
INGREDIENTS
3 oz flank steak
0.5 medium whole wheat tortilla
0.5 oz Monterey Jack cheese
0.25 whole avocado
0.25 tsp olive oil
1 tbsp lime juice
0.25 tsp ground cumin
0.25 tsp garlic powder
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tbsp fresh cilantro
1 tbsp red onion
PREPARATION
In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, cumin, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.
Place the flank steak in a shallow dish, coat with the marinade, and let it sit for 15 minutes.
Heat the olive oil in a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat and sear the steak for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare.
Transfer the steak to a cutting board and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing thinly against the grain.
In a small bowl, mash the avocado with minced red onion and chopped cilantro until smooth.
Wipe out the skillet and place the tortilla inside over medium heat, sprinkling cheese over one half.
Layer the sliced steak over the cheese, fold the tortilla in half, and cook for 2 minutes per side until golden and crispy.
Slice the quesadilla into three wedges and serve immediately with the fresh guacamole.
