Steak, chimichurri sauce, and cheese were made to go together.

Ingredients

  • Chimichurri Sauce1 cup fresh parsley
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 2 Tbs vinegar
  • 1 1/2 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
  • Steak and Vegetable Quesadillas1 small yellow onion
  • 1 red bell pepper
  • 1/2 lb mushrooms
  • 1 lb bottom round steaks (or other steak of your choice)
  • 2 Tbs butter, more as needed
  • 2 Tbs olive oil
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 7 burrito-sized tortillas
  • 2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • 1 cup chimichurri sauce (ingredients above)

Directions

  • Chimichurri SauceCoarsely chop parsley. Finely mince garlic. Place both in a bowl and stir in remaining ingredients until well combined.
  • Steak and Vegetable QuesadillasThinly slice onions, red peppers, and mushrooms. Place in a plastic baggie or covered bowl and refrigerate until using.
  • Thinly slice steak against the grain and refrigerate until using. (To make slicing the steak easier, stick it in the freezer for about 15 minutes first.)
  • Heat butter and oil in a large skillet. Add sliced vegetables and cook for 3 minutes. Add sliced steak, season to taste with salt and pepper, and cook until steak is cooked, about 5 to 8 minutes, depending on the thickness of your slices.
  • Top half of each tortilla with some cheese. Spoon some of the veggie and steak combination on top. Dollop some chimichurri sauce on top and then cover with more cheese.
  • Fold the tortillas in half. Melt some butter in a large skillet or on a griddle. Cook the quesadillas for about 5 minutes on each side, until golden brown and cheese is melted.
  • Cut into wedges and serve. If you have any chimichurri sauce left, you can serve that with the quesadillas for dipping.
