Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 20m

Yield 16 wedges

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 large flour tortillas (10-inch)
2 tablespoons olive oil
kosher salt
1/4 cup sour cream
1 lime, zested and juiced
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
fresh ground black pepper
1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro (or 1 teaspoon dried parsley) or 1 tablespoon fresh parsley leaves (or 1 teaspoon dried parsley)

Steps:

  • Preheat the broiler.
  • Brush the tortillas on both sides with oil and lightly salt.
  • Heat a large saute pan over medium heat and cook the tortillas, 1 at a time, until slightly golden on both sides.
  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix together the sour cream, lime zest and juice, cumin, and salt and pepper, to taste, until smooth. Pour into a plastic squeeze bottle or sturdy resealable plastic bag and cut small tip in corner.
  • Arrange the browned tortillas on a baking sheet and sprinkle evenly with cheese. (You may need to do this in batches if both tortillas don't fit on 1 tray.).
  • Broil until the cheese bubbles and begins to brown, about for 1 to 2 minutes, being careful not to burn.
  • Slice each quesadilla into 8 wedges and drizzle sour cream decoratively over the top.
  • Sprinkle with cilantro and serve.

These quesadillas were a bit bland. I think I'll add some more seasoning next time.

I've tried this recipe several times and I can never get the tortillas to crisp up. What am I doing wrong?

These quesadillas were just okay. The tortillas were a bit too crispy and the filling was bland.
