Kimchi Quesadilla
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 2 cups chopped kimchi
- 4 tablespoons canola oil
- 4 (12-inch) flour tortillas
- 4 cups shredded Cheddar-Jack cheese
- 8 sesame or shiso leaves, torn
- 1/4 cup toasted sesame seeds
- Melt the butter in a saute pan over medium heat.
- Add the kimchi and cook, stirring, until caramelized and slightly charred, about 10 minutes.
- Add 1 tablespoon of the canola oil to a large nonstick pan or griddle over medium heat.
- Place one of the tortillas in the pan and sprinkle 1 cup of the cheese on one half of the tortilla.
- Add about a quarter of the caramelized kimchi, a quarter of the sesame or shiso leaves, and a quarter of the sesame seeds.
- Fold over to create a half-moon.
- Continue to cook until the bottom of the tortilla blisters like a Neapolitan pizza.
- Flip the quesadilla over and cook the second side until it reaches the same doneness.
- Transfer to a plate, cut into triangle-shaped pieces, and serve.
