MANGO BRIE QUESADILLA
Steps:
- Remove Brie from freezer to let warm up. Carefully remove skin from mango and cut away from seed as much of meat as possible (remember mangos have a flat seed, so you should be able to get 2 large meaty pieces) Carefully slice mango into thin strips. By this time the Brie has begun to thaw, and should slice easily into very thin strips. (Brie, being such a soft cheese, could never otherwise be sliced, unless frozen first.) Lay a tortilla on a work surface and place 2/3 of the Brie slices on the tortilla. Add about 6 to 8 of the mango slices, and top with remaining Brie. (This will glue the quesadilla together when cooked.) Top with remaining tortilla and press together.
- Heat nonstick 10-inch saute pan and add butter on medium heat. Saute quesadilla until golden brown on both sides. Remove from heat and allow to cool 5 minutes, cut into 8 slices and top with Avocado Salsa.
- In a large bowl, mix together all salsa ingredients. Let sit at room temperature for at least 15 minutes to let the flavors mingle.

Tips:

- Cooking the Chicken: Achieve tender, juicy chicken by cooking it over medium heat. Overcooking can result in dry, rubbery meat.
- Choosing the Best Mango: Select ripe, firm mangoes with a sweet aroma. Avoid mangoes that are too soft or have bruises.
- Slicing the Mango: Utilize a sharp knife to cut the mango into thin slices. This ensures even cooking and distribution within the quesadilla.
- Using Fresh Herbs: Elevate the flavor of your quesadillas by incorporating chopped fresh herbs like cilantro or basil.
- Selecting Quality Cheese: Choose a melty cheese like Brie or Monterey Jack for an indulgent, gooey interior.
- Building the Quesadilla: Layer the ingredients evenly within the tortilla, ensuring the cheese is distributed throughout to achieve a uniform melt.
- Cooking the Quesadilla: Cook the quesadilla over medium heat, pressing down gently with a spatula to promote even cooking and prevent the tortilla from puffing up excessively.
- Slicing and Serving: Allow the cooked quesadilla to rest briefly before slicing it into wedges. Serve with your preferred accompaniments.
