Method

Prepare the Steak

1

Marinate the Steak

In a bowl, combine the olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and cumin. Mix well and add the steak, ensuring it is fully coated. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.

2

Cook the Steak

Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated steak and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until it reaches your desired doneness. Remove from heat and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing into thin strips.

Assemble the Quesadilla

3

Prepare the Tortilla

Place one flour tortilla on a clean surface. On one half of the tortilla, layer a generous amount of shredded cheese, followed by a portion of the sliced steak.

4

Add Guacamole

Spoon some guacamole over the steak and cheese. Fold the tortilla in half to cover the filling.

Heat the Quesadilla

In a skillet over medium heat, add a little olive oil or cooking spray. Place the folded quesadilla in the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the tortilla is golden brown and the cheese has melted.

6

Slice and Serve

Remove the quesadilla from the skillet and let it cool for a minute. Slice into wedges and serve with additional guacamole on the side.
