- 4 large flour tortillas
- 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, Monterey Jack, or your choice)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil

- Cook the Steak: Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the steak and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until desired doneness. Remove from heat and let rest before slicing thinly.
- Assemble the Quesadillas: Lay one tortilla in the skillet, sprinkle half of the cheese on one half, add a portion of the sliced steak, and then top with the remaining cheese. Fold the tortilla over.
- Cook the Quesadillas: Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, until the tortilla is golden brown and the cheese is melted. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.
- Serve: Cut the quesadillas into wedges and serve hot with sour cream, salsa, guacamole, or chopped cilantro.
