Add the onion and garlic to the skillet with the beef. Cook until the onion is softened, about 2-3 minutes.
Stir in the Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper, then remove from heat.
Assemble the quesadillas on the griddle: place one tortilla down, sprinkle half the cheese, add half the beef mixture, then top with more cheese and another tortilla.
