• 1.5 cups broccoli florets

• 1.25 cups quesadilla cheese

Instructions

1. 1

   Add soy sauce, mirin, sake, garlic, brown sugar, ginger, and Thai chili to the jar of a blender. Blend on high until smooth. Reserve 2 tablespoons marinade; pour remaining marinade into a resealable plastic bag.

2. 2

   Add steak to the resealable bag, close the bag, and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes or up to overnight.

3. 3

   Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Remove steak from the marinade, shake off excess, and cook and stir steak in the skillet until browned, about 5 minutes. Discard the remaining marinade.

4. 4

   Meanwhile add broccoli to a microwave-safe steamer, and steam in the microwave until tender, about 3 minutes. Roughly chop the broccoli.

5. 5

   Remove steak to a plate to keep warm, and drizzle with the 2 tablespoons reserved marinade. Rinse the skillet and dry with a paper towel. Place 1 tortilla in the skillet, and add a 1/8 portion each of cheese, steak pieces, broccoli, and bell pepper to tortilla. Fold tortilla in half. Press down with a spatula, and cook until tortilla begins to brown and cheese melts, about 3 minutes. Carefully turn quesadilla over; cook until browned on the other side, about 3 minutes more. Repeat with remaining ingredients.

   Cut quesadillas into wedges. Sprinkle with black sesame seeds and green onions; serve with Yum Yum sauce and teriyaki sauce, if desired.
