Cheesesteak Quesadillas Recipe

Cheesesteak quesadillas. Need we say more? The classic Philly cheesesteak just got upgraded with a crisp tortilla stuffed full of melted provolone, sautéed mushrooms, fresh peppers, seared juicy steak, and a not-so-secret ingredient of fresh avocados. That’s what we call a slam dunk.

Step 1

Season steak with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tbsp. oil in a medium, heavy skillet over medium-high until hot. Cook steak, turning once, until browned on both sides but still pink inside, about 2-3 minutes per side. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest for 10 minutes. Thinly slice and set aside.

Step 2

In same skillet, heat 1 tbsp. oil over medium heat. Cook red bell peppers, yellow bell peppers and onions, stirring, for 6 to 8 minutes or until soft. Add mushrooms and cook until softened, about 3 minutes more. Set aside.

Step 3

Lay 4 tortillas on a flat surface and divide steak and vegetables between them. Top with avocado slices and cheese. Cap with remaining tortillas.

Step 4

In a large non-stick skillet heat remaining 1 tbsp. oil over medium heat. Cook 1 quesadilla at a time, flipping once, until golden brown on both sides, about 3 minutes per side.
