Number Of Ingredients 11

4 tablespoons butter, melted
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 small onion, chopped
4 jalapeno peppers, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 lb shrimp, chopped (I used whole frozen salad shrimp, cooked, and just let them defrost naturally in the refrigerator)
3/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
1/4 teaspoon salt
16 regular size flour tortillas
2 cups monterey jack cheese, shredded

  • Add shrimp, if using raw shrimp, sauté till pink.
  • Remove pan from heat, add next 3 ingredients.
  • Place tortillas on foil lined baking sheets; brush 1 side of each tortilla with remaining butter mix.
  • Turn tortilla over so buttered side is down; spread with shrimp mixture evenly over half of each tortilla, and sprinkle with cheese.
  • Distribute mixture evenly between all tortillas.
  • Fold over in half pressing a little.
  • Bake at 475 for 8-10 minutes or until golden.
  • Cut in half with a pizza cutter for appetizers or serve whole for brunch.
  • Serve warm with salsa and sour cream if desired.

I made these quesadillas for my kids and they loved them! They're a great way to get them to eat shrimp.

These quesadillas were a little bland for my taste. I think I'll add some extra spices next time.

These quesadillas were easy to make and turned out great! I used a rotisserie chicken instead of shrimp and they were still delicious.

I followed the recipe exactly and the quesadillas turned out perfectly. They were crispy on the outside and cheesy and gooey on the inside.

These quesadillas were a bit too greasy for my taste. I think I'll try baking them instead of frying them next time.
