Lime-Marinated Steak and Bell Pepper Quesadillas
Enjoy a zesty twist on a classic quesadilla, featuring tender lime-marinated steak, sweet bell peppers, and a light sprinkle of Mexican cheese all nestled between whole wheat tortillas. This dish is bursting with citrus notes, a subtle smokiness, and is perfect for a balanced, flavorful meal.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Steak (flank or sirloin)
0.5 cup sliced Red Bell Pepper
2 Whole Wheat Tortillas
1/4 cup Light Mexican Cheese (shredded)
2 tbsp Lime Juice
1 tsp Mixed Seasonings (Salt, Pepper, Cumin, Garlic Powder)
PREPARATION
In a bowl, combine the lime juice and seasonings to create a marinade.
Place the steak in the bowl, ensuring it is well-coated with the marinade. Let it sit for at least 20 minutes.
Preheat a grill or skillet on medium-high heat. Grill the marinated steak for about 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare, or adjust cook time to your desired doneness.
While the steak rests, sauté the sliced red bell pepper in a non-stick pan for 2-3 minutes to soften slightly.
Thinly slice the rested steak.
Assemble the quesadilla by placing one tortilla in a skillet over medium heat, then layer the sliced steak, sautéed bell peppers, and sprinkle the light Mexican cheese evenly.
Top with the second tortilla and cook for about 2 minutes until the bottom tortilla is golden and the cheese starts to melt.
Carefully flip the quesadilla and cook for another 2 minutes until both sides are crispy and golden.
Remove from heat, slice into wedges, and serve immediately.
