Notes

Use a good quality steak. The better the steak, the better the steak quesadilla will taste.
Don't overcook the steak. You want the steak to be cooked through, but you don't want it to be dry.
Use a good melting cheese. Cheddar cheese is a good choice, but you can also use Monterey Jack, American, or a blend of cheeses.
Don't overcrowd the griddle. If you try to cook too many quesadillas at once, they won't cook evenly.
Cook the steak quesadilla over medium heat. This will help to prevent them from burning.
