I must admit, I’ve never tried an authentic quesadilla (only from Mexican restaurants) but until I travel to South America, this version will do! If you want a quick and easy recipe to make for dinner after work, give this one a try!
P.S. One day I will buy a tortilla press and will make my own tortillas at home. When that happens, I’ll share the recipe with you.
Cheesy Barbeque Quesadillas
Ingredients
- 3 Tbsp Olive oil
- 1 small Brown onion finely diced
- 1 cup Green bell pepper finely diced
- 1 cup Frozen corn kernels thawed
- 1 can Black beans rinsed and drained
- 1 cup Barbeque sauce
- 3 Tbsp Mexican seasoning
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1 tsp Fresh coriander
- 8 Flour tortilla
- 2 cups Cheese
Instructions
- Head a non-stick frying pan on high heat. After 2 minutes add the olive and chopped onions. Cook for 4-5 minutes then add the bell pepper and cook for 2 minutes. Add the corn kernels, black beans, mexican seasoning, salt and corriander (this is optional). Cook for 2 minutes then set the aside.
- Heat a clean non-stick frying pan and add a torilla. Heat both sides of the tortilla for 1-2 minutes until it becomes lighly toasted.
- Add the grated cheese to cover the entire tortilla and let it melt for 1-2 minutes. Once the cheese has melted, add 2 tablespoons of the filling to one half of the tortilla. Fold half of the tortilla over the filling and gently press it down with a spatula and cook for about 30 seconds.
- Seve the quesedillas guacamole and sour cream and enjoy.
