  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • ½ tsp cumin
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Juice of ½ lime (optional for marinating)

For the quesadillas:

  • 2 cups shredded cheese (Mexican blend, cheddar, or pepper jack)

How to Make Steak Quesadillas on the Blackstone

Prep the Steak:
Season the steak with garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, cumin, salt, pepper, and lime juice if using. Let it sit for 15-30 minutes to soak up the flavor while you prep your other ingredients.

Heat the Blackstone:
Preheat your Blackstone griddle on medium-high. Drizzle a little oil or butter over the surface to prevent sticking. We prefer to use large amounts of butter when cooking on the Blackstone- you can use whatever works best for you.

Cook the Veggies:
Add the onions and bell peppers to one side of the griddle. Cook until softened and lightly charred, about 5-7 minutes. Move them to a cooler part of the griddle to keep warm.

Cook the Steak:
On the hot zone, cook the steak for 2-3 minutes per side or until it’s browned and cooked to your desired doneness. Remove from heat. You can mix the steak and veggies together, or keep them separate if you prefer.

Assemble the Quesadillas:
Lightly oil or butter the griddle. Place a tortilla on the griddle, sprinkle with cheese, add steak and veggies, then top with another layer of cheese and fold the tortilla over. Press gently with a spatula to help it crisp.

Crisp and Flip:
Cook each quesadilla for about 2-3 minutes per side until golden and crispy. Cut into wedges and serve hot.

Make The Sauce:

Whisk all ingredients together in a small bowl until smooth. Taste and adjust lime, salt and spice. Chill for 10-15 minutes before serving if you have time- this helps the flavors meld.

    Tips and Variations

    • Swap steak for leftover grilled chicken or carnitas.
    • Add mushrooms or jalapeños for extra flavor.
    • Want it spicier? Try pepper jack cheese or a drizzle of hot sauce before folding.

    Serving Suggestions

    These Blackstone steak quesadillas go great with the lime dipping sauce, sour cream, salsa, or guacamole. Add a side of grilled corn or a simple salad to round out the meal.
