Guest Post: Grill Up Your Summer

Posted by Caryn Bailey Leave a Comment

You’ve probably heard my wife talk about her love for the kitchen (ahem!).  Since I do most of the cooking, I thought I’d share a recipe I tried over the weekend at Smart & Final.

Last week, Cattleman’s Finest kicked off their Grill Up Your Summer recipe contest with live, in-store demos, tastings, and giveaways at Smart & Final.  Cattleman’s Finest is the grocer’s exclusive brand of hand cut and trimmed, corn fed, fresh beef.  Using Cattleman’s Finest Flap Meat, the store demonstrated a Steak Quesadilla. Here is the recipe.

Ingredients:

  • 1 Green or Red Bell Pepper, sliced
  • 1/2 Red Onion, sliced
  • 1/4 cup Mild Cheddar Cheese
  • Large Flour Tortillas (we prefer the whole wheat version)
  • Cattlemen’s Finest Flap Steak, cut into slices
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Olive oil

Begin by chopping the peppers and onions.

Grill the meat in an open skillet (you can use a bit of olive oil if you prefer). As the meat is starting to get done, toss in the chopped bell pepper and onion. Salt and pepper to taste.

In a separate skillet (or you could place the cooked meat in a bowl and use the same skillet), place one tortilla and some cheese and allow to melt. As the cheese melts, place the meat and grilled vegetables on top and fold in half (you could also top with a second tortilla instead of folding the single one in half).  After about a minute, flip the quesadilla to grill the other side until the cheese is completely melted.

Slice and serve with fresh salsa, guacamole, and sour cream.
