Basic Quesadilla
Basic Quesadilla
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon butter or oil (optional)
- 8 flour tortillas (7 inch)
- 2 cups cheddar (or other) cheese, shredded
Directions
- 1.Lay out 4 of the tortillas on a counter and divide the cheese (and other fillings, if any) among them making sure to spread the cheese evenly to the edges of the tortillas. Top with the other 4 tortillas.
- 2.Place a large pan over medium heat for 2 minutes. Melt the butter in the pan.
- 3.Lift one sandwich with a spatula and place in the sauce pan. Cook, turning once, for 2 to 3 minutes on each side or until the cheese is melted and the tortillas are lightly browned (the trick is to melt the cheese before the exteriors of the tortillas become dark brown and hard; you want them to remain soft).
- 4.Repeat with the remaining 3 quesadillas.
- 5.Cut each quesadilla into quarters and serve.
- 6.Note: While you're finishing the quesadillas, the ones already cooked may be kept warm on a baking sheet in a 200 degree F oven.
