Tips:
- For the best results, use a good quality steak. A ribeye or flank steak works well.
- Thinly slice the steak against the grain. This will help it cook evenly.
- Season the steak with your favorite seasonings. I like to use salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
- Cook the steak in a hot skillet until it is cooked to your desired doneness. I like my steak medium-rare.
- Shred the steak and set it aside.
- In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onions and cook until they are softened.
- Add the peppers and cook until they are softened.
- Add the steak, cheese, and salsa to the skillet. Stir until the cheese is melted and the ingredients are combined.
- Spoon the steak mixture onto the tortillas. Fold the tortillas in half and cook until they are golden brown and crispy.
- Serve the quesadillas with your favorite toppings, such as guacamole, sour cream, and Pico de Gallo.
