Kickin’ Quesadillas

Serves 4


Level of difficulty: easy

This recipe was created by boutique caterer Chef Ann Kirsebom who took on the challenge of creating her globally successful line of gourmet grill sauces and marinades. Fresh ingredients and a generous shot of premium alcohol result in an appealing and appetizing product that will send your taste buds into gourmet heaven.

See below for purchase and order info for these four succulent sauces: Tequi-Lime ®, O’Rumba, O’Plum Sesame, Teriyaki Sake


Ingredients:
6 8” flour tortillas
2 Tbsp vegetable oil or melted butter
5 oz grated Jalapeno Jack cheese (or a mix of goat and Jack cheese)
¼ cup finely chopped red onion
½ roasted red bell pepper, seeded and diced
1 tsp minced fresh cilantro (more or less as desired)
5 oz cooked shrimp or shredded cooked chicken
1 papaya, seeded and finely chopped
Tequi-Lime ® Sauce

In a medium bowl, mix together cheese, onion, red bell pepper, cilantro,shrimp or chicken, papaya and salt and pepper to taste. Generously brush Tequi-Lime ® Sauce over tortillas. Place filling in a half circle on each tortilla – do not put filling any closer than ½” to the outer edge; fold tortillas in half.

Brush tortillas with oil or butter. Place on a bbq preheated to medium-high (lightly oil rack just before cooking) or in a preheated lightly oiled grill pan or nonstick skillet. Cook each tortilla 2-3 minutes on each
side or until golden brown. Serve with additional Tequi-Lime ® Sauce.

Bon appetit!
Chef Ann


Not just another bbq condiment, Tequi-Lime ® gourmet grill sauce and marinade will deliciously dress your salads, add sizzle to your stir fry’s, marinade your pork loins and spot prawns and perfect your pizzas and pastas.
