Beef and Broccoli Quesadilla topcook.tomathouse.com
Ingredients:
- 4 wheat tortillas
- 250 g lean ground beef
- 350 g of mixed vegetables: broccoli, carrots, and onions, cut into strips
- 4 radishes, thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup coarsely chopped fresh cilantro
- 3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 3 tbsp. l. olive oil
- Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
- 2 tsp chili seasoning
- 1.5 tsp ground cumin
- 2 tbsp. salsa sauce, and more for serving
- 1 1/3 cups shredded Mexican cheese mix (about 170 g)
Preparation:
- Combine the cabbage, radishes, and 2 tablespoons of cilantro in a large bowl. Add the lime juice and 1 tablespoon of olive oil; season with salt and pepper and toss to combine. Set aside.
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat.
Add the ground beef, chili powder, and cumin, and season with salt and pepper. Cook, breaking up the meat, until browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir the ground beef into the salsa. Transfer the mixture to a bowl and toss with the remaining 2 tablespoons cilantro; set aside.
Wipe out the frying pan.
- Spread the beef mixture among the tortilla halves and sprinkle with cheese; fold in half to cover the filling.
Heat 1/2 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add 2 quesadillas and cook until the cheese is melted and the tortillas are golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a cutting board. Repeat with the remaining 1/2 tablespoon olive oil and the quesadillas.
Cut the quesadillas into wedges. Serve with plenty of salsa and coleslaw.
