Quesadilla Filling

Method

Preparing the Quesadilla

  1. 1

    Prepare the Filling

    In a bowl, mix your choice of cooked chicken, ground beef, shredded beef, beef tips, or fried beans with shredded cheese until well combined.

  2. 2

    Assemble the Quesadilla

    Take a flour tortilla and place a generous amount of the filling mixture on one half of the tortilla. Fold the other half over the filling to create a half-moon shape.

  3. 3

    Cook the Quesadilla

    Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a little oil or butter. Once hot, place the folded quesadilla in the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and the cheese is melted.

  4. 4

    Repeat

    Repeat the process for the remaining tortillas and filling.

Serving the Quesadilla

  1. 5

    Plate the Quesadilla

    Cut each quesadilla into wedges and place them on a serving platter.

  2. 6

    Add Toppings

    Top the quesadillas with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, and a dollop of sour cream. Drizzle supreme sauce over the top to taste.

  3. 7

    Serve

    Serve hot and enjoy your delicious Quesadilla Roja!
