Recipe:Quesadilla
Ingredients (per serving)
Directions
- Preheat oven to 450F.
- Place aluminum foil onto a cookie sheet.
- Place both tortillas flat onto the cookie sheet, and place into the oven for 5 minutes, until lightly brown.
- Remove the tortillas from the oven.
- Distribute 2/3 of the cheese evenly over one tortilla.
- Sprinkle the roasted poblano and the chicken onto the same tortilla (Hint for the norteamericanos: think pizza toppings).
- Add the remaining cheese, then cover with the second tortilla.
- Place into the oven, baking for about 5 minutes. Flatten every few minutes by pressing down with a large spatula.
- Flip the quesadilla.
- Bake for another 3 minutes, until cheese is melted, and the tortillas are as crispy as you want them. Flatten again.
- Using a knife or pizza slicer, slice, either with radial cuts, or one diametric line, and orthogonal slices about 5 cm apart.
Serve with salsa and guacamole.
Ingredient substitution:
Instead of chicken, use grilled steak, or go meatless. Ground meat is not recommended.
Instead of / in addition to the poblano: tomato, onion, jalapeno, mushroom.
