Cheese and Scallion Quesadillas
Holiday 2008
These quesadillas are fast and simple, make them more elaborate by adding any of your favourite ingredients. They are a great way to use up a piece of leftover chicken or perhaps a handful of shrimp.
Serves 4
4 large flour tortillas
1 cup (250 mL) store-bought salsa
1½ cups (375 mL) Monterey Jack or cheddar cheese, grated
2 scallions, finely sliced
1 tbsp (15 mL) fresh cilantro, finely chopped
½ cup (125 mL) sour cream
1. Spread ¼ cup (50 mL) salsa on half of each tortilla.
2. Divide the cheese between the 4 tortillas placing on top of salsa. Top cheese with scallions and cilantro.
3. Fold quesadillas in half and place on a baking sheet. Broil quesadillas on middle rack under high heat for 4 minutes on each side or until golden and cheese has melted.
4. Let rest for a few minutes before slicing into wedges and serve with sour cream.
