Time 45m

Yield 6 quesadillas, 2-3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 (10 inch) flour tortillas
3 tablespoons remoulade sauce, divided (use whatever kind you like, or substitute mayo)
4 pieces thick-cut bacon, cooked and crumbled
1 -2 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 lb shrimp, peeled
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 onion, diced
seafood seasoning (to taste)
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 cup pickled jalapeno pepper, diced (you can adjust this amount based on how spicy you like it)
1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
1 cup monterey jack cheese or 1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
sour cream
guacamole
salsa

Steps:

  • Prepare tortillas by spreading a light layer (about 1 tablespoon) of remoulade or mayo on one side. This will act as your "glue" for the fillings. Set aside.
  • Heat oil in non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add onion, garlic, shrimp, and seasonings; saute about 2-3 minutes or until shrimp turn pink. Remove shrimp mixture from pan and place in bowl. Combine with crumbled bacon and pickled jalapenos. Taste to make sure seasonings are how you want them.
  • If necessary, spray pan with non-stick spray.
  • Place tortilla in pan, clean side down. On half of the tortilla,layer in 1/3 of cheddar cheese, then 1/3 shrimp mixture, then 1/3 of the jack or mozzarella cheese. Fold empty side of tortilla over the fillings and press down.
  • Let tortilla brown until crisp, about 4-5 minutes. Flip and brown the other side.
  • Repeat with remaining tortillas. Cut each folded quesadilla in half when ready to serve.
  • Serve with your choice of sour cream, guacamole, salsa, or all three!

These shrimp quesadillas were delicious! The shrimp were cooked perfectly, and the cheese was melted and gooey. I loved the combination of spices in the salsa. I will definitely be making these again.

These quesadillas were a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved them. He said they were the best shrimp quesadillas he's ever had. I would make them again, but I would use a milder salsa next time.

I'm not a big fan of spicy food, but these quesadillas were still really good. The shrimp were cooked perfectly, and the cheese was melted and gooey. I would definitely make these again, but I would use a milder salsa next time.
