Poblano And Rosemary Veggie Quesadillas Recipes

CHEESY PICANTE QUESADILLAS

Steps:

• Place 6 tortillas onto 2 baking sheets. Spread about1/4 cup picante sauce onto each tortilla to within 1/2-inch of the edge. Top each with 1 tablespoon chiles and 1/4 cup cheese. Brush the edges of the tortillas with water. Top with the remaining tortillas and press to seal.
• Bake at 400 degrees F for 10 minutes or until the filling is hot. Cut each quesadilla into 4 wedges. Serve with additional picante sauce.

CHICKEN AND ROASTED POBLANO QUESADILLA WITH AVOCADO CREAM

Steps:

• Prick the chicken all over with a fork and put in a medium bowl. Rub the cumin and 3/4 teaspoon salt into the chicken. Add 1/4 cup of the sour cream and half the lime zest and juice and mix until the chicken is coated. Let sit at room temperature for 15 minutes.
• Blend the avocado, remaining 1/4 cup sour cream, remaining lime zest and juice, 3 tablespoons water and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a blender until very smooth; refrigerate until ready to use.
• Meanwhile, preheat the broiler. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil.
• Put the poblanos skin-side up on the prepared baking sheet and broil until the skin is wrinkled and charred in spots, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer the poblanos to a medium bowl, cover with plastic wrap and let steam for 5 minutes. Run the poblanos under cold water and remove and discard the skin. Cut the poblanos into small bite-size pieces and return them to the bowl.
• Transfer the chicken to the baking sheet and broil, turning once, until browned in spots and cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Let cool for a few minutes. Cut it into small bite-size pieces. Add the chicken and half of the scallions to the bowl with the poblanos and toss to combine. Combine the cheese and garlic in a small bowl.
• Top 4 tortillas with 1/4 cup of the cheese mixture, one-quarter of the chicken-poblano mixture then 1/4 cup more cheese mixture. Top each with 1 of the remaining 4 tortillas and press lightly.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add 1 quesadilla to the skillet and cook, turning once, until it is golden and the cheese is melted, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a baking sheet or large plate and repeat with the remaining oil and quesadillas. Cut each quesadilla into quarters and sprinkle with the remaining scallions. Serve with a dollop of the avocado cream, lime wedges and salsa on the side.
