Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 8 oz Mishima Reserve NY strips
  • 2 TBS Brown Sugar
  • 1/3 cup soy sauce
  • 1 tsp grated ginger
  • 1 TBS oyster sauce
  • 1 tsp minced garlic

  4. Quickly grill strips until desired temperature is achieved. Remove from grill and chop into small pieces. Cook diced onions and peppers in 1 TBS butter in the skillet, then remove.
  5. melt more butter in skillet. Lay down tortilla, then place 1/4 of cheese on 1/2 of the tortilla. Cover cheese with some onions and peppers and then diced beef. Fold over tortilla and cook until toasted, then flip and toast other side. Repeat for other tortillas.
  6. Remove quesadillas when done. Slice into desired portions, then drizzle with wasabi crema and serve.
