1
Marinate the Shrimp
In a bowl, combine the shrimp, Sriracha sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix well and let marinate for about 15 minutes.
2
Grill the Shrimp
Heat olive oil in a grill pan over medium-high heat. Add the marinated shrimp and grill for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they are pink and cooked through.
3
Prepare the Quesadilla
On one half of each tortilla, sprinkle a layer of shredded cheese, add grilled shrimp, jalapeños, and another layer of cheese. Fold the tortilla over to close.
4
Cook the Quesadilla
In the same grill pan, add the quesadilla and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and the cheese has melted.
5
Serve
Remove from the pan, slice into wedges, and serve with lime wedges on the side.
