Preparation Steps
Cook the Shrimp
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onion and bell pepper, cooking until softened, about 3-4 minutes. Add shrimp, cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Cook until shrimp are pink and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in chopped cilantro.
Assemble the Quesadillas
Lay a tortilla on a flat surface. On one half of the tortilla, layer a portion of the shrimp mixture and top with shredded cheese. Fold the tortilla over to cover the filling.
Serve
Cut the quesadillas into wedges and serve with sour cream and salsa on the side.
