Crispy Chorizo Cheese Taco Quesadillas With Simple Salsa Recipe By Tasty Recipes

CRISPY CHORIZO & CHEESE TACO-QUESADILLAS WITH SIMPLE SALSA RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• If making the chorizo, in the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the paprika, cumin, ancho chile powder, chili powder, oregano, coriander, cinnamon, cloves, ground pork, vinegar, and garlic. Mix until well combined.
• Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. When the oil is shimmering, add the chorizo and cook until the fat has rendered and the chorizo is crisp. Remove from the pan using a slotted spoon and discard the excess fat.
• Sprinkle the cheese over the tortillas, then top with the chorizo.
• Return the tortillas to the pan and cook until the cheese is melted and the tortilla is crisp, 3-4 minutes per side.
• Meanwhile, make the salsa: Coat the tomatoes, peppers, and garlic with olive oil and salt, then spread on a baking sheet. Roast under the broiler for 5-10 minutes, until charred in spots.
• Transfer the roasted vegetables to a blender and purée until smooth. Stir in the lemon juice and season with more salt to taste.
• Serve the taco-quesadillas with salsa and pickles.
• Enjoy!

CHORIZO QUESADILLAS WITH EASY HOMEMADE SALSA

Steps:

• Add some oil to the skillet over medium heat. Once hot add the sausage and cook, stirring and breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon, until cooked through and crumbly, about 7 minutes.
• Use a slotted spoon to remove the sausage from the pan to a paper-towel-lined sheet tray to drain off some of the grease.
• To assemble the quesadillas, sprinkle each tortilla with 1/2 cup sausage, 1/2 cup cheese, some beans and Easy Homemade Salsa. Fold the tortilla over to close.
• Heat a cast-iron double-burner griddle over medium-high heat. Add the butter and 1 tablespoon oil. Once the butter is melted and foamy, carefully add the quesadillas to the pan and cook on both sides until golden brown and cheese is fully melted, about 4 minutes per side. Serve with sour cream.
• Add the cilantro, tomatoes, garlic, jalapenos, lime juice, onion and some salt and pepper to the bowl of a food processor, and pulse until blended together. You want the salsa to still maintain some texture but be much smoother than if chopping by hand.

CHEESE AND SALSA QUESADILLAS

Steps:

• Spread 2 tablespoons salsa on half of each tortilla.
• Sprinkle with 1/4 cup each of the beans and the cheese.
• Fold tortillas over and press down lightly.
• In a large nonstick skillet over medium heat, cook tortillas, 2 at a time, pressing down lightly with the back of a metal spatula, for about 2 minutes per side, until lightly toasted and cheese is melted (or place directly on barbecue grill over medium heat until lightly toasted on both sides).
• Cut into wedges and serve warm with additional salsa.

CRISPY-EDGED QUESADILLA

Steps:

• Place a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat, then add the oil. Let oil heat up for 20 seconds, swirling the pan around so the oil coats the bottom.
• Place the tortilla in the skillet and sprinkle the cheese evenly over the top. Once the cheese begins to melt, 30 seconds to 1 minute, use a spatula to fold the tortilla in half. Using the spatula, press down firmly on the top of the tortilla until some of the cheese runs out into the pan. Let the quesadilla cook until the cheese that's leaked out solidifies and turns brown, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Flip the quesadilla over and let cook on the other side for another 1 to 2 minutes, until the cheese is crisp and golden. Slide quesadilla onto a plate and serve immediately.
