FAJITA QUESADILLAS

I came up with this one night when I didn't know what to cook. I had leftover steak in the fridge, so I decided to get creative. These came out wonderful! The measurements are approximations, so feel free to change them according to your tastes. Serve with salsa, guacamole, and sour cream.

Steps:

  • Heat 2 teaspoons oil in a 10-inch skillet over medium heat; cook and stir onion and green bell pepper in the hot oil until onions are softened, 5 to 10 minutes. Season mixture with salt and transfer to a bowl.
  • Brush 1 side of each tortilla with remaining oil. Place 1 tortilla, oil-side down, in the same skillet; sprinkle with 1/2 the steak, 1/2 the onion mixture, and 1/2 the Mexican cheese mixture. Place a second tortilla, oil-side up, onto cheese layer, pressing down with a spatula to seal.
  • Cook quesadilla over medium heat until cheese melts and tortillas are browned, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove quesadilla from skillet and cut into wedges. Repeat with remaining ingredients for second quesadilla.

CRAB FAJITA QUESADILLAS

With no plans for dinner and a package of surimi in my fridge that needed to be used up, I made this up using the ingredients I had on hand. It turned out pretty tasty! It think I'll scramble the rest of the filling with some eggs for breakfast burritos tomorrow. Next time I make it, I'll make sure I have some cilantro on hand to use in place of the basil, and I'll definitely add avocado!

Steps:

  • Cut flank steak into strips 1/4-inch wide and 3 inches long and marinate in Worcestershire sauce, liquid smoke, juice of 1 lime and garlic for 20 minutes.
  • (Note: boneless skinless chicken breasts should be "fileted" in half before cutting into 1/4x3-inch strips).
  • While meat is marinating, cut onion and bell pepper into 1/4-inch wide strips and heat in non-stick skillet with oil until they begin to sweat (don't let them become too soft).
  • Remove them to a paper plate to drain.
  • Drain meat and brown in same skillet until done.
  • Remove to paper plate to drain.
  • Wipe out the skillet so it is dry and begin to reheat it over a medium heat.
  • Take one tortilla and put a small amount of grated cheese, 1/4 of the meat (or amount to suit), onion and bell pepper to suit and cover with another small amount of grated cheese and top with a tortilla.
  • Carefully put "tortilla sandwich" in the heated dry skillet and cook until cheese melts (about 60-90-120 seconds). Flip and cook on other side same amount of time.
  • Tortilla will take on a lovely "tanned" appearance and become just slightly crispy.
  • This dinner sounds involved but is actually quite simple and very quick.
  • Kids and adults both will love it served with iced tea, pico de gallo, guacamole and salsa.
  • Enjoy!
