Time 1h

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 tablespoons olive oil, plus more as needed
2 large onions, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon sugar
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
9 (8-inch-diameter) flour tortillas
3 cups shredded Fontina
3/4 cup jarred roasted red bell peppers, drained well and patted dry
1/3 cup finely chopped fresh Italian parsley leaves, plus sprigs for garnish
1/3 cup freshly shredded Parmesan, plus 3 tablespoons for garnish

Steps:

  • Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a heavy large skillet over medium-low heat. Add the onions and sugar, and cook until the onions are golden brown, about 20 minutes. Season the onions, to taste, with salt and pepper; set aside.
  • Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F.
  • Sprinkle some Fontina over half of a tortilla. Arrange some bell peppers and sauteed onions on top of the Fontina. Sprinkle with chopped parsley and Parmesan. Sprinkle more Fontina over. Fold the clean half over the filling to cover and press gently to seal. Repeat with remaining tortillas evenly dividing the filling ingredients.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon oil on a heavy large griddle over medium heat. Working in batches, cook the quesadillas until the cheese melts and the tortillas are golden brown, adding more oil as needed, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer the quesadillas to baking sheets and keep them warm in the oven while cooking the remaining quesadillas.
  • Sprinkle the remaining Parmesan over the quesadillas. Cut each quesadilla into 4 wedges. Arrange them on a platter. Garnish the platter with parsley sprigs and serve.

QUESADILLAS WITH SAUSAGE AND PEPPERS



Quesadillas with Sausage and Peppers image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
8 ounces sweet Italian sausage, casings removed
2 bell peppers (any color), sliced
1 small onion, sliced
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 teaspoon dried oregano
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 1/3 cups marinara sauce
4 large flour tortillas (burrito-size)
1 8-ounce bag shredded mozzarella cheese (about 2 cups)
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon and stirring occasionally, until browned and mostly cooked through, about 5 minutes.
  • Add the bell peppers, onion, garlic, oregano, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender, about 15 minutes. Add 1/3 cup each marinara sauce and water and cook, stirring, until the vegetables are lightly coated and the skillet is mostly dry, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl and carefully wipe out the skillet.
  • Lay the tortillas on a work surface. Top one side of each tortilla with 1/4 cup mozzarella, 1/2 tablespoon Parmesan, one-quarter of the sausage-and-peppers mixture and another 1/4 cup mozzarella and 1/2 tablespoon Parmesan. Fold the tortillas over the filling and gently press.
  • Brush the tortillas with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Working in two batches, cook the quesadillas in the reserved skillet over medium heat until browned, about 2 minutes per side.
  • Warm the remaining 1 cup marinara sauce in a small saucepan or the microwave. Cut the quesadillas into wedges. Serve with the sauce for dipping.

To ensure perfectly crispy quesadillas, use a large skillet or griddle. This will allow you to cook them evenly without overcrowding.

For a gooey, melted cheese center, grate your cheese finely and sprinkle it evenly over the tortillas.

Don't be afraid to experiment with different fillings. Try adding grilled vegetables, pulled pork, or even breakfast sausage to your quesadillas.

Serve your quesadillas with your favorite dipping sauce, such as salsa, guacamole, or sour cream.

When making quesadillas, it is crucial to use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will ensure that your quesadillas are flavorful and delicious. With so many possible variations, you will never tire of this versatile and satisfying dish.
