20 Minute Steak and Blue Cheese Quesadillas
In 20 minutes, create delicious quesadillas filled with steak, blue cheese and balsamic flavors.
Ingredients
- 1 lb sliced deli roast beef for 4 corn quesadillas My favorite is Boar's Head London Broil. It's a little pricier than the generic version but it really is worth it.
- ½ cup blue cheese
- ½ onion chopped (optional)
- balsamic glaze
- 8 corn tortillas Flour tortillas are also delicious in this recipe but I use corn to make it gluten free. If you're using flour tortillas, this recipe will make two large flour quesadillas that can be cut in half before serving.
- 1 teaspoon oil Cooking spray would also work.
Instructions
- Sauté chopped onion in one tablespoon of oil, for 5-7 minutes or until onion begins to soften.
- Separate deli slices and cut into smaller pieces. Add to the onions and cook until beef is warmed up.
- Heat another pan and add about one teaspoon of oil and spread with a spatula.
- Add tortilla to the pan and place 1/4 of beef/onion mixture on top of the tortilla.
- Sprinkle with 1-2 tablespoons of blue cheese (depending on taste preference, I prefer more but my kids prefer less) and drizzle with balsamic glaze to taste (about 1/2 tablespoon per quesadilla).
- Place another tortilla on top and cook each side for 3-4 minutes or until crispy.
- To speed up the process, I use two large pans and cook two quesadillas in each pan.
