Shrimp Quesadilla Preparation

1. 1

   Prepare the Salsa

   In a mixing bowl, combine diced pineapple, diced mango, chopped jalapeño, red onion, lime juice, and salt. Mix well and set aside to let the flavors meld.

   In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic, and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Add shrimp, cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Cook for 3-4 minutes or until shrimp are pink and cooked through.

   Assemble the Quesadillas

   Remove the shrimp from the skillet. In the same skillet, add one tortilla, sprinkle half of the cheese over it, add half of the cooked shrimp, and sprinkle with chopped cilantro. Top with another tortilla.

   Cook the Quesadillas

   Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and the cheese is melted. Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling.

   Cut the quesadillas into wedges and serve warm with the pineapple-mango-jalapeño salsa on the side.
