Steak Cheese Steak Quesadillas Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 (1 pound) beef top sirloin, thinly sliced
- 2 small onions, sliced
- 2 green bell peppers, sliced
- 1 cup barbeque sauce (e.g., Bull’s-Eye(R) Texas-Style Bold Barbeque Sauce)
- 8 (10 inch) flour tortillas
- 2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
Directions:
- Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
- Heat a skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir the beef until it is browned, about 5 to 7 minutes.
- Add the sliced onions and green bell peppers to the skillet with the beef. Continue to cook and stir until the vegetables are softened, about 5 to 10 minutes.
- Pour the barbeque sauce over the beef and vegetable mixture. Simmer until the sauce is slightly reduced, about 10 minutes.
- Lay four flour tortillas on a baking sheet. Top each tortilla with an even layer of the beef mixture and a generous amount of Cheddar cheese.
- Cover each filled tortilla with another tortilla, pressing down slightly to seal the edges.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, then flip the quesadillas and continue to bake until the cheese is melted and the tortillas are golden brown, about 5 minutes more.
