Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Flour tortillas
- 2 cups Shredded cheese (cheddar, Monterey Jack, or a blend)
- 1 cup Sweet corn kernels (fresh, canned, or frozen)
- 0.5 cup Sun-dried tomatoes (packed in oil, drained, and chopped)
- 0.25 cup Fresh cilantro (chopped)
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil (optional, for brushing the tortillas)
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat.
In a mixing bowl, combine the sweet corn kernels, chopped sun-dried tomatoes, chopped cilantro, salt, and pepper. Stir to mix evenly.
Place a tortilla on a flat surface and sprinkle 1/4 cup of shredded cheese on half of the tortilla.
Spread 1/4 of the corn and sun-dried tomato mixture evenly over the cheese layer.
Sprinkle another 1/4 cup of shredded cheese on top of the filling, then fold the tortilla in half to enclose the filling.
Repeat the same process with the remaining tortillas and filling.
Brush each folded tortilla lightly with olive oil on both sides if desired, to achieve a crispier texture.
Place the prepared quesadilla onto the heated skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on one side, or until golden brown and the cheese begins to melt.
Flip the quesadilla carefully and cook for another 2-3 minutes on the other side until golden and crispy.
Remove the quesadilla from the skillet and let it rest for 1-2 minutes before slicing it into wedges.
Serve warm with salsa, guacamole, or sour cream on the side, if desired.
