Notes
Tips and Tricks:
- *You can use any type of steak for this recipe. I love a Flat Iron, NY Strip, Ribeye or even Tri Tip. Add a little oil into a pan and cook until an internal temp of 130°F is reached.
- *If you want to add some heat add fresh or pickled jalapenos or green chile to the quesadilla!
