Method

7 steps · 45 min

01
Caramelize the Kimchi
In a skillet or non-stick frying pan, melt the 1 tablespoon butter. Add the chopped kimchi and cook over medium heat until it's deeply caramelized and slightly charred. Remove any excess liquid, then season with 1 teaspoon garlic powder before setting aside.
02
Brown the Beef
In the same pan, add 1 tablespoon olive oil and sauté the thin slices of beef over medium heat until browned. Season with salt and pepper to taste, then remove any excess liquid and set aside.
03
Prepare the Griddle
On a large pan or griddle, heat over medium heat. Brush 1 teaspoon vegetable or olive oil on the pan, coating it evenly.
04
Assemble Quesadillas
Place 1 tortilla on the hot pan and spread your preferred amounts of the cooked beef, caramelized kimchi, and shredded 2 cups sharp cheddar over one half. Make sure to leave about 1 inch clear from the edges, then top with another tortilla.
Slightly press down with your hand to compress the quesadilla, helping the cheese melt and hold everything together.
05
Oil the Top
Drizzle some oil on the top tortilla and brush evenly to coat, preparing it for flipping.
06
Cook and Cool
Heat the quesadilla until the bottom is browned. Carefully flip it and continue cooking until both sides are browned and blistered, and the cheese is fully melted.
When finished, carefully transfer it to a cutting board and let it cool for a few minutes before cutting.
07
Slice and Serve
Cut each quesadilla into 4 equal pieces and transfer to a serving plate. Repeat this process with the remaining ingredients and 8 flour tortillas to make a total of 4 quesadillas.
