GRILLED STEAK QUESADILLAS

RIB-EYE QUESADILLAS

Steps:

• For the steak and marinade: Add the orange juice, soy sauce, cumin, salt, garlic, lemon juice, chipotle, 1/2 cup of the olive oil and some black pepper to a food processor and blend until smooth and combined.
• Put the steaks into a resealable plastic bag and pour the marinade over. Seal the bag and massage the marinade into the steaks to ensure they are totally coated. Marinate, refrigerated, for as long as it takes to roast the chiles and get the other ingredients ready for the quesadillas.
• For the roasted poblano chiles: Roast the chiles by using metal tongs to hold them one-by-one over the flame of your stovetop until the skin is totally charred. (If you don't have a gas stove, you can use an outdoor grill OR place them on a baking sheet directly under your oven's broiler.) When totally blackened, place the chiles in a large resealable plastic bag and seal the bag to allow them to sweat for a good 20 minutes. Then use a knife to scrape off most of the blackened skin. Slice the chiles in half lengthwise and scrape out the seeds and membranes, then slice into strips.
• Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a grill pan over high heat. Remove the steaks from the marinade and turn the heat to medium low. Grill for 5 to 6 minutes each side for medium rare. Let the steaks rest for 5 minutes, then slice.
• For the quesadillas: Build the quesadillas by laying some cheese on 6 of the tortillas, then some slices of steak and some of the poblano chile strips. Sprinkle with the tomato and onion. Top with a little more grated cheese and then place the remaining tortillas on top.
• Melt 1/2 tablespoon of butter in a clean skillet over medium heat and lay a quesadilla in the skillet. Cook until golden on the bottom, 3 to 4 minutes. Carefully flip the quesadilla to the other side, adding another 1/2 tablespoon butter to the skillet at the same time. Continue cooking until the second side is golden, 3 to 4 minutes. Repeat with the remaining quesadillas.
• To serve: Cut the quesadillas into wedges and top with pico de gallo and salsa if desired.

GRILLED STEAK, ZUCCHINI AND MONTEREY JACK QUESADILLAS

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for medium heat.
• Whisk together the cumin, garlic, lime juice, orange juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl and add the steak. Mix well to coat and let marinate for 10 minutes.
• Lightly oil the grill grates and cook the steak, flipping once, until medium rare, 2 to 6 minutes per side depending on the thickness. Remove the steak to a cutting board and let rest 5 minutes. Slice the steak against the grain and then into bite-size pieces.
• Lightly brush the zucchini with oil and grill, flipping as needed, until tender and lightly charred, 4 to 6 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Cut into bite-size chunks and set aside to cool slightly.
• Lay a tortilla on a work surface and sprinkle evenly with 1/2 cup of the cheese. Arrange one-quarter of both the steak and zucchini on top of the cheese. Fold the tortilla in half to enclose the fillings. Repeat with the remaining tortillas, cheese, steak and zucchini.
• Melt 1/2 tablespoon butter in a large nonstick or cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add a quesadilla and cook, flipping once, until golden brown on both sides and the cheese is melted, about 3 minutes per side. Remove to a cutting board and repeat with the remaining butter and quesadillas.
• Cut the quesadillas into triangles and serve with the chopped scallions, sour cream, guacamole and salsa.

GRILLED STEAK, CHIPOTLE AND PEPPER JACK QUESADILLAS

Steps:

• Whisk the garlic, cumin, lime and oranges juices and 1/2 teaspoon salt together in a medium bowl. Add the steak, coat well in the mixture and let marinade for 10 minutes.
• Lightly oil the grill grates. Grill the steak, flipping once, until medium rare, 2 to 6 minutes per side depending on the thickness. Remove to a cutting board and let rest 5 minutes. Slice the steak against the grain and reserve.
• Lay a tortilla on a work surface and top evenly with 1/2 cup pepper-jack cheese. Add 1/4 of the steak and some chopped chipotle in adobo and sauce. Fold the tortilla in half to enclose fillings. Repeat with remaining tortillas and ingredients.
• Melt 1/2 tablespoon butter in a large nonstick or cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Cook the quesadilla, flipping once, until the cheese is melted and it is golden brown on both sides, about 3 minutes per side. Remove to a cutting board and repeat with the remaining quesadillas.
