Corn Quesadillas image

Nice flavors and textures for a quesadilla, with a nice jolt of spiciness from the chiles. Works out ok with flour tortillas as well as corn. From The Border Cookbook, posted for ZWT 3, Mexico.

Categories     Corn

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 tablespoons minced onions
1 garlic clove, minced
1 cup corn kernel
4 ounces thinly sliced mushrooms, preferably a wild variety such as portabello
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 canned chipotle chiles, minced
2 -3 teaspoons adobo sauce (from the chiles)
vegetable oil, for frying
8 corn tortillas
6 -8 ounces monterey jack cheese, shredded
2 -3 tablespoons minced fresh cilantro
salsa (optional)

Steps:

  • preheat oven to 275.
  • in a small skillet, warm the tablespoon of oil over medium heat.
  • add the onion and garlic and saute for 1 minute.
  • stir in the corn, mushrooms and salt and chipotles and continue cooking for about 5 minutes, till the vegetables are cooked through.
  • on a griddle or in a large, heavy skillet, warm just enough oil to coat the surface, over medium heat.
  • cover the first tortilla with about one quarter of the vegetable mixture, a similar amount of cheese and 1 or 2 t cilantro.
  • top with a second tortilla.
  • transfer the quesadilla to the skillet and cook till the cheese is melted and the tortillas are lightly browned and chewy-crispy, about a minute per side.
  • drain, place the tortilla on a heat proof plate in the oven to keep warm.
  • repeat the assembly and cooking process with the remaining tortillas and filling, adding as many to the skillet as will fit comfortably at one time.
  • slice the quesadillas into wedges and serve hot, with salsa if desired.

These quesadillas were a little bland for my taste. I think I would have added some more spices.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my quesadillas didn't turn out very well. The tortillas were soggy and the filling was bland.

I had some trouble getting the tortillas to fold properly. They kept breaking.

These quesadillas were a hit with my family! The filling was flavorful and cheesy, and the tortillas were crispy and golden brown. I will definitely be making these again.
