For the steak :

- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp onion powder

- 1/4 tsp ground Mexican oregano

For the quesadillas :

- 4 large flour tortillas
- 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, thinly sliced
- 2 cups Mexican Cheese Blend
- 1/2 cup canned fire-roasted corn
- 1/2 an avocado, diced
- 1/2 cup canned black beans, drained
- Limes wedges and fresh minced cilantro for garnish
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Then prepare a baking tray with a piece of parchment paper.
- Combine all of the spices and salt for the steak in a small bowl. Coat the steak in the spice mixture.
- Heat two tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat in a large skillet. Sear the steak
for 3 minutes on each side. In the oven, the steak will cook more, so make sure it’s just a sear! Remove from heat and set aside for 5 minutes while quesadillas are being prepared. - Place 2 tortillas on the prepared baking sheet and top with 1/2 cup of cheese each.
- Tomatoes, corn, black beans, and avocado go on top.
- Against the grain, thinly slice the meat. Place slices on top of the tortillas that have been loaded.
- Cover with remaining tortillas and sprinkle the remaining cheese evenly over both quesadillas.
- Bake for 6-8 minutes, or until the cheese has melted and the tortillas have warmed up.
- Remove from the oven and cut into desired shapes. Serve with lime wedges, a dollop of sour cream, and your favorite salsa and guacamole on the side!
