philly cheesesteak quesadilla recipe - Golden brown Philly cheesesteak quesadilla sliced into wedges with melted cheese oozing out

Philly Cheesesteak Quesadilla

A delicious fusion of the classic Philadelphia sandwich and a crispy Mexican quesadilla. Loaded with tender steak, peppers, onions, and melted cheese.

  • Total Time: 25 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

1 lb ribeye or flank steak, very thinly sliced
4 large flour tortillas
2 cups shredded Provolone cheese
1 cup shredded Mozzarella cheese
1 large green bell pepper, thinly sliced
1 large yellow onion, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
Salt and black pepper to taste
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce (optional)

Instructions

Step 1: Heat the olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced onions and bell peppers.
Step 2: Sauté the vegetables for 5-7 minutes until they are soft and slightly caramelized. Season with salt and pepper, then remove them from the pan and set aside.
Step 3: In the same skillet, increase the heat to high. Add the thinly sliced steak in a single layer. Cook for 2-3 minutes until browned and crispy on the edges. Stir in the Worcestershire sauce if using.
Step 4: Return the cooked vegetables to the skillet and toss with the steak to combine. Remove the entire mixture from the pan.
Step 5: Wipe the skillet clean and reduce heat to medium. Add a small amount of butter. Place one tortilla in the pan, sprinkle with cheese, add the steak mixture to half, and fold. Cook for 2 minutes per side until golden and crispy.

Notes

To make slicing the steak easier, place it in the freezer for 20 minutes before cutting.
