Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 oz Cooked brisket
- 4 unit Low-carb tortillas
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 tbsp Butter
- 1 unit Jalapeño, sliced
- 1 tsp Chili powder
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 1 unit Avocado, sliced
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 2 tbsp Fresh cilantro, chopped
Instructions
Shred the cooked brisket into small pieces and set aside.
In a medium bowl, mix shredded brisket with chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until well combined.
Heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
Place one low-carb tortilla in the skillet and sprinkle half of the cheddar and mozzarella cheeses over the tortilla.
Evenly spread half of the brisket mixture over the cheese, then add a few jalapeño slices for extra heat if desired.
Add another layer of the remaining cheddar and mozzarella cheeses, then top with another tortilla.
Press down gently and cook for 3-4 minutes until the bottom tortilla is golden and the cheese begins to melt.
Carefully flip the quesadilla using a spatula, adding more butter if needed, and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes on the other side, until golden brown and the cheese is fully melted.
Remove from the skillet and let it cool slightly on a cutting board.
Repeat the process with the remaining tortillas and fillings to make the second quesadilla.
Slice each quesadilla into wedges.
Serve quesadilla slices with fresh avocado, a dollop of sour cream, and sprinkle with chopped cilantro.
Enjoy your Keto Brisket Quesadilla with these rich, savory flavors.
