BLACK BEAN AND MUSHROOM QUESADILLAS WITH AVOCADO CREMA RECIPE



Black Bean and Mushroom Quesadillas with Avocado Crema Recipe image

The mushrooms and black beans give these quesadillas a "meaty" heartiness while still keeping them vegetarian. They're so easy to whip up and come together in no time, making them perfect for that weeknight when you don't really feel like spending too much time in the kitchen. The avocado crema pairs perfectly with the quesadillas and can be made the morning of. Just make sure to wrap it well in plastic wrap so that it doesn't turn brown.

Time 25m

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup sour cream
1/4 cup lightly packed cilantro leaves
1 medium avocado, pitted
Finely grated zest and juice of 1 lime
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons everyday olive oil
1 pound sliced cremini or button mushrooms
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 medium red onion, thinly sliced
1 can (15-ounce) black beans, drained and rinsed
4 burrito-size flour tortilla
2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese

Steps:

  • In a food processor or blender, combine the sour cream, cilantro, avocado, lime zest and juice and season with salt and pepper. Process until smooth then taste and adjust seasoning accordingly. Transfer the avocado crema to a bowl, cover tightly with plastic wrap and chill until ready to use.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until it begins to shimmer. Add the mushrooms, garlic and onions, and cook, stirring often, until just beginning to brown, about 10 minutes. Stir in the beans, season with salt and pepper and cook until warmed through, about 1 minute. Transfer the vegetables to a bowl and keep warm. Wipe the skillet clean with paper towels.
  • Return the skillet to medium-low heat. Place one tortilla on the dry skillet and cook for about 20 seconds per side to make it pliable. Sprinkle ¼ cup cheese onto one half of the tortilla. Top with about one-quarter of the mushroom-bean mixture and then sprinkle with another ¼ cup of cheese.
  • Fold the tortilla over to create a half-moon and cook the quesadilla until the cheese is melted through and the tortilla is golden brown and crisp on both sides, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Transfer the quesadilla to a cutting board, tent with foil to keep warm, and repeat with the remaining tortillas, cheese and mushroom-bean mixture to make three more quesadillas.
  • Slice each quesadilla into quarters and transfer to a serving plate. Serve with the avocado crema on the side.

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, 2 turns of the pan, plus some for drizzling
16 crimini mushroom caps, baby portobellos, with stems, trimmed and thinly sliced
12 shiitake mushrooms, thinly sliced, stems discarded
Coarse black pepper and salt
1 tablespoon (a few sprigs) fresh thyme leaves, chopped, or 1 teaspoon dried
4 large flour tortillas, 12 inches in diameter
2 cups shredded sharp white cheddar
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, 1 turn of the pan
1 small onion, chopped

1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and chopped
1 can black beans, drained
1 cup frozen corn kernels
1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes in oil, chopped
1/2 cup smoky barbecue sauce
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Heat a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the oil and the sliced mushrooms to the hot skillet. Season mushrooms with black pepper, salt and thyme.

  • Add another turn of extra-virgin olive oil to the skillet and add the onions, garlic and jalapeno pepper; saute for 2 or 3 minutes, then add beans and corn to the pan. Stir in chopped tomatoes and barbecue sauce, then season salsa with salt and pepper. Transfer warm salsa to a serving dish.

Sprinkle 1/2 cup sharp cheddar over 1/2 of the flour tortilla. Cover the cheese with 1/4 of the cooked sliced mushrooms. Fold the plain 1/2 of the tortilla over top of the filling and gently press down with a spatula. Cook the filled quesadilla 30 seconds to a minute longer on each side to lightly brown and crisp the quesadilla and melt the cheese. Remove the quesadilla to a large cutting board or transfer to a warm oven to hold, then repeat with remaining quesadilla ingredients.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and make the cooking process smoother.
  • Choose the Right Mushrooms: For the best flavor and texture, use a variety of mushrooms in your quesadillas. Some good options include cremini, shiitake, oyster, and portobello mushrooms.
  • Cook the Mushrooms Properly: Mushrooms should be cooked until they are tender but still have a bit of a bite to them. Overcooking will make them tough and rubbery.
  • Use Fresh Herbs: Fresh herbs, such as cilantro and parsley, add a lot of flavor to quesadillas. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but they won't be as flavorful.
  • Don't Overfill the Quesadillas: When you're assembling the quesadillas, don't overfill them or they will be difficult to fold and cook evenly.
  • Cook the Quesadillas Over Medium Heat: Cook the quesadillas over medium heat so that they have time to cook through without burning.
  • Serve the Quesadillas Immediately: Quesadillas are best served hot and fresh out of the pan. Serve them with your favorite dipping sauce, such as salsa, guacamole, or sour cream.

Conclusion:

Mushroom and black bean quesadillas are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for any occasion. They're packed with flavor and nutrients, and they can be made with a variety of different ingredients. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give these quesadillas a try.
