CHEESY CHIPOTLE BBQ QUESADILLAS WITH BELL PEPPER, ONION, PICO DE GALLO & RANCH CREMA

Steps:

• • Adjust rack to top position and heat broiler to high. Wash and dry all produce. • Halve, core, and thinly slice bell pepper into strips. Halve, peel, and thinly slice onion; mince a few slices until you have 1 TBSP (2 TBSP for 4 servings). Dice tomato. Finely chop cilantro. Quarter lime.
• • Heat a large drizzle of olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add bell pepper and sliced onion; cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly softened, 3-4 minutes. • Add BBQ Seasoning and a pinch of chipotle powder (add more if you like things spicy). Season with salt and pepper. • Cook, stirring occasionally, until veggies are softened and lightly browned, 2-3 minutes. (TIP: Add a splash of water if veggies begin to brown too quickly.) Turn off heat.
• • While veggies cook, in a medium bowl, combine tomato, cilantro, minced onion, and a squeeze of lime juice. Season generously with salt and pepper. • In a small bowl, combine sour cream and half the ranch dressing (you'll use the rest in the next step). Season with salt and pepper.
• • In a second medium bowl, mix together pepper jack, cheddar, and remaining ranch dressing; stir until thoroughly combined.
• • Rub one side of each tortilla with a drizzle of oil. Place tortillas oiled sides down on a baking sheet. Add half the cheese mixture to one half of each tortilla. Top with veggies and remaining cheese mixture. Fold tortillas in half to create quesadillas.
• • Broil quesadillas on top rack until golden brown, 1-2 minutes per side. TIP: Watch carefully to avoid burning. • Cut quesadillas into wedges and divide between plates. Top with pico de gallo and drizzle with ranch crema. Serve with remaining lime wedges on the side.
