Philly Cheesesteak Quesadilla

This quesadilla is for those that love that steak, pepper, and melty cheese combo of a Philly cheesesteak, but seek that crunch of a crispy tortilla over a hoagie. It’s quick and comforting and a fun spin on everyone’s favorite sandwich that's perfect for game day or a weeknight at home.

Ingredients :

  • 2 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil, divided
  • 12 oz. sirloin steak
  • Kosher salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 medium flour tortillas
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella
  • 1/2 cup shredded provolone

Directions :

  1. In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high heat. Season steak on both sides with salt and pepper. Add steak to skillet and cook until desired doneness, 3 to 4 minutes per side for medium. Transfer steak to a cutting board and let rest for 10 minutes. Slice into thin strips.
  2. Add onion and peppers to the skillet and cook over medium heat until soft, about 8 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute more. Return sliced steak to skillet, add Worcestershire and stir to coat. Transfer pepper/steak mixture to a plate and wipe out skillet.
  3. Place a tortilla on a clean work surface. Sprinkle a quarter of the mozzarella on the bottom half, top with a quarter of the pepper/steak mixture, and a quarter of the provolone. Fold top half of tortilla over on top of filling. Repeat to make 3 more quesadillas.
  4. Return skillet to medium heat and add remaining tablespoon oil. Working in batches, add quesadillas to skillet and cook until golden and cheese is melty, 2 to 3 minutes per side.
