These Cheese Steak Quesadillas are a sure fire crowd pleaser. Quesadillas are in regular rotation at my house. I must say they are one of my favorite things to eat and cook. You just can’t get much easier than meat, veggies, and melted cheese in a flour tortilla.
Sometimes I want something a little different from the normal Tex-Mex quesadilla. By changing up the filling, I can rotate quesadillas in and out even more. If you love steak or cheese steak sandwiches you will love this recipe!
After you check out this recipe, you should check out my husband’s most requested meal. It’s all about the steak too!

Lacie’s Easy Peasy Pleasy Tip…By leaving the flour tortilla open in the pan, the cheese will melt on both sides and the tortilla will brown evenly all at the same time. This will cut the heating time of the quesadilla in half.

Cheese Steak Quesadillas
Ingredients
- 1 lb beef sirloin steak, cut in thin strips
- 1 bell pepper, sliced
- 1 onion, sliced
- 2 teaspoon Lawry’s Seasoned Salt,
 divided
- 1 teaspoon McCormick Montreal Steak Grill Mates Seasoning
- 1 teaspoon pepper, divided
- 16 slices provolone cheese
- 4 large flour tortillas
- canola oil
- non-stick cooking spray
Directions
For the steak-combine the sliced steak, 1 teaspoon season salt, steak seasoning, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a ziplock bag. Mix until the seasoning has evenly coated the steak. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a cast iron skillet over medium high heat. Sear sliced steak in batches for 1 to 2 minutes per side depending on how done you like your steak. Do not over crowd the pan. Add 1 tablespoon of oil if the pan gets to dry. Remove steak from pan. Heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium heat in same skillet. Toss in sliced onion and bell pepper. Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon season salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Saute veggies for 5 minutes or until tender, stirring frequently.
Now assemble the quesadillas. Heat large skillet or griddle on medium high heat. Spray with non-stick cooking spray. Place flour tortilla on pan. Lay 4 slices of Provolone cheese evenly on the flour tortilla. On one side, top with steak. On the opposite side, top with the sauteed peppers and onion. Once the cheese has melted, fold the flour tortilla in half. Remove from the skillet and cut into 4 wedges. Eat and enjoy!

It’s good and you should! Lol!
What’s a good side dish to go with this?
Hi Camille! Think of it just like you were eating a sandwich. I like a salad, fries, or even chips would be good.
Made this last night and got rave reviews! This recipe is delicious!
Thank you soooo much Beverly! I’m super excited your family enjoyed a recipe my family enjoys! I must say…best comment ever!
Going to make these tonight!!!! Is it 100% necessary to use a cast iron? All I have are non stick pans…
Hey Betty! Thank you for stopping by! I use the cast iron cause I can get the heat really high and get a good sear on the meat (no juices flowing out) and it literally cooks up in mins! Try it with the nonstick but make sure and put a little oil in the pan before you heat it up. I would love to hear how it works out in the nonstick pan, so let me know!
This was an AMAZING recipe!!! My husband said ” you can’t even get quesadillas like this in restaurants!!”.
It turned out great in the non stick pan. (I usually cook ribeyes in the same way.) So thanks for this!!! Will be making again!!!!
That is wonderful Betty!!! Any tips for cooking in the nonstick pan??
Just made this for dinner tonight, and was really good. Would definitely recommend it.
Hi Cynthia! I’m so glad you liked it! Thank you for letting me know!
Thanks for a new twist on an old favorite. I just made them for an early supper and I really like them (the rest of the family too). I also like that the recipe allows me to stretch a small amount of beef (I only used a bit over a half pound) to feed four hungry people.
Thank you so much Janice! I’m glad your family enjoyed the Cheese Steak Quesadillas! You right, it’s a great way to stretch red meat that is so expensive right now!
Tried these for supper tonight. Had to use a different type of cheese but they were still delicious.
Hey Carolyn! Thank you so much for the sweet comment! What cheese did you use? I always love a new variation!
I found this recipe this morning and made it tonight for dinner. It was a huge hit! Thank you for an easy and delicious meal. This recipe is definitely a keeper!
Hi Angela! I’m glad it was a huge hit! Thanks for letting me know! I hope you are having a wonderful Labor Day!
Looks absolutely wonderful . But was wondering if Chicken could be substituted for the steak as my husband and son have a hard time digesting beef ?I have seen both steak and chicken in restaurants so just was curious.
Hey Connie. Chicken would be great too. Go for it!
Thank you . Will try it . I know they will love it .
Connie, let me know what you think with the chicken. I know it will be good but would love your opinion.
Made these tonight and they were great! I felt like a sauce would be nice to dip it in though. Any suggestions or ideas?
Hi Emily! Great question. My mind is racing with ideas. Are you looking for more heat, more spice, or something to add more flavor? I would love your feedback!
I was thinking something more savory. At first I was thinking a Balsamic sauce but my husband said it wouldn’t work well with the provolone.
I have an idea. Do you like horseradish?
Found your recipe through Pinterest this afternoon and made it for dinner tonight. Delicious!!! The meat and veggies are seasoned perfectly. My son asked if I would send the “Pin” to him so he can make it when he is out on his own (21yrs old). We will definitely be making this again!
Yay DeAndrea! I’m so glad y’all enjoyed! This recipe is an Easy Peasy Pleasy original and it touches my heart that y’all loved. Tell that son of yours to get cooking…lol! ????????
This is a great receipt. I just wish you added the calorie count, because I just started dieting and this was a great meal.
Hey Michael! Sorry there is no calorie count. I can tell you this isn’t low fat. This recipe is probably a cheat meal. I’m so glad you liked it though. Thank you for stopping by!
