Quesadilla Ingredients

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Marinate the Shrimp

    In a bowl, combine shrimp, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Let it marinate for 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Grill the Shrimp

    Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill the marinated shrimp for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they are cooked through and opaque. Remove from heat and chop into small pieces.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Quesadillas

    On one half of each tortilla, layer some grilled shrimp, shredded mozzarella, and chopped green onions. Fold the tortillas over to create a half-moon shape.

  4. 4

    Cook the Quesadillas

    In a non-stick skillet over medium heat, cook each quesadilla for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and the cheese has melted.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Cut the quesadillas into wedges and serve with guacamole, pico de gallo, and jalapeno ranch on the side.
