Ingredients
- 3/4 lb steak sliced thinly

- 2 Tbsp olive oil divided
- 1 ½ tsp salt
- ½ tsp ground black pepper
- 1 garlic clove minced
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese (see note)
- 2 Tbsp mayonnaise optional
- 4 burrito flour tortillas 8-inch
Instructions
- Freeze the steak for 10 minutes then cut into thin uniform slices.
- Add 1 Tbsp oil to a large skillet. Once hot, add the meat, garlic, and onion; cook until no longer pink. Season with salt and pepper, remove from heat.
- Add 1 Tbsp mayo to one-half of a tortilla, omit for a healthier quesadilla. Top the same half with the beef mixture. Add cheese, and fold the tortilla to close the quesadilla, and repeat with the remaining ingredients.
- Add 1 Tbsp oil to a skillet and heat. Once hot, add both quesadillas and cook until both sides of the tortilla are crispy flipping halfway through cooking. Once done, remove from heat and cut into four slices.
- Serve and enjoy, friends.
Notes
- Store: Store quesadillas in the fridge for up to 4 days.
- Reheat: Reheat the quesadillas in a dry skillet over low heat until reheated.
- Cheese: Though we love mozzarella cheese, you can use your favorite shredded cheese.
