Pulled Pork Quesadilla image

Use your leftover pulled pork in this perfect Mexican pulled pork quesadilla recipe! It wows with black beans, chiles, and melty cheese.

Provided by Erin Clarke / Well Plated

Categories     Main Course

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1.5 cups leftover slow cooker pulled pork (or your favorite BBQ pulled pork)
1 15-ounce can reduced sodium black beans, rinsed and drained
1/4 medium red onion (finely chopped)
1 4-ounce can diced green chiles in their juices
1/3 cup chopped fresh cilantro*
2 cups shredded cheddar (pepper jack, or Monterey jack cheese (I used cheddar))
8 8-inch flour tortillas
Nonstick spray (canola oil, or butter, for grilling the quesadillas)
Homemade BBQ sauce (or your favorite BBQ sauce)
Nonfat plain Greek yogurt ( or sour cream)
Chopped green onions (or cilantro)

Steps:

  • If you'd like to keep your quesadillas warm between batches, preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
  • To a large mixing bowl, add the pulled pork, black beans, red onion, green chiles, and cilantro.
  • Stir to combine.
  • Assemble the quesadillas and cook: Warm a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Lightly coat the skillet with nonstick spray or lightly brush with olive oil. Lay a tortilla in the skillet and sprinkle 2 tablespoons cheese over half. Top with ½ cup of the pork mixture.
  • Sprinkle an additional 2 tablespoons cheese on top, the fold the tortilla over the cheese to create a half moon. To cook 2 quesadillas at the same time, slide the folded quesadilla to one side of the skillet with the straight edge running down the middle, then cook a second quesadilla beside it (the open sides of the quesadillas will point away from each other).
  • Cook quesadillas on both sides until the tortillas are golden and the cheese is melted, about 5 to 6 minutes total. If desired, transfer cooked quesadillas to a clean baking sheet and place on the lower rack of the oven to keep warm. Repeat with remaining quesadillas.
  • Transfer the quesadillas to a cutting board and let rest 1 to 2 minutes. Slice into wedges and serve hot with a drizzle of BBQ sauce (I like to warm the sauce first), Greek yogurt, and green onions or cilantro as desired.

  • If using the onion and jalapeños, add 2 tablespoons of canola oil to a large pan over medium-high heat. Add the onion and jalapeño and sauté 4-6 minutes, or until softened. Transfer the vegetables to a bowl and set aside.
  • Wipe the pan clean and place over medium-low heat. Add a light drizzle of oil to the pan and allow to come to temperature.
  • Carefully, place 1 flour tortilla on the pan and scatter about a 1/4 cup of shredded cheese over the entire tortilla. Then, to only one half of the tortilla, add about a 1/3 cup pulled pork, followed by a light sprinkle of the vegetables, if using.
  • Once the cheese starts to melt (about 1 minute), use a spatula to fold the side with cheese only over the pulled pork filling. Hold the quesadilla down with your spatula until the filling has melded together, about 30 seconds to 1 minute more.
