Crispy Pepper Jack Quesadillas Recipe
- 4 (10-inch) flour tortillas
- 1 cup grated pepper jack cheese
- 2 Serrano peppers, thinly sliced
- 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1/2 cup prepared salsa
- 1/2 lime, cut into wedges
- Preheat a countertop panini-style grill (like a George Foreman). Alternatively, preheat a large, heavy grill pan over medium-low heat for 15 minutes.
- Lay tortillas on a flat surface and sprinkle 1/4 cup of the cheese on the bottom half of each one, leaving space around the edges. Scatter peppers and cayenne evenly over cheese and fold over to form a half-circle. Cut the folded half in half, and brush both sides of tortillas with oil.
- Place on grill one at a time and lightly tamp down lid (if using a countertop grill). Flip and rotate half-way through to achieve hatched, griddled marks (about 2 minutes per side).
- Serve immediately with salsa, sour cream and limes for passing.
