Wipe out the skillet from cooking the shrimp and heat it over medium heat. You can lightly oil or butter the skillet if desired.
Cook Quesadillas:
Place the folded quesadillas in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the tortillas are golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Slice and Serve:
Remove the quesadillas from the skillet and let them cool slightly. Cut into wedges and serve with sliced avocado, sour cream, and salsa or pico de gallo.
Tips for Success:
Shrimp Size: Use large shrimp for the best texture and flavor. Make sure they’re cooked just until pink and opaque to avoid overcooking.
Cheese: A blend of cheeses can provide a more complex flavor and melt better.
Tortillas: Flour tortillas work best for quesadillas, but you can use whole wheat or gluten-free tortillas if preferred.
Garnishes: Fresh cilantro, sliced jalapeños, or a squeeze of lime can add extra flavor.
Enjoy your restaurant-quality shrimp quesadillas! They’re perfect for a delicious meal or as a standout dish for entertaining. 🌮🦐🧀
