Main Ingredients

Chipotle-Avocado Sauce

Method

Preparing the Quesadilla

1

Caramelize the Onions

In a skillet over medium heat, add a bit of oil and the sliced onion. Cook slowly until they are golden brown and caramelized, about 15-20 minutes.

2

Prepare the Filling

In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded roasted duck, sliced red pepper, sliced jalapeño, caramelized onions, cheddar cheese, and cotija cheese. Mix until combined.

3

Assemble Quesadillas

Place a large flour tortilla in a skillet over medium heat. Spread a portion of the filling on one half of the tortilla, then fold the other half over. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden and crispy.

4

Repeat

Repeat the process for the remaining tortillas and filling.
