Steps:
- On a large plate, pour the red sauce over the shrimp and set aside.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. Cook the onions and bell peppers over high heat until they start to get nicely browned.
- Stir them after a minute or so, then let them sit on medium-high heat until they're nice and brown.
- Add the pineapple and cook over medium-high heat until they start to get brown/black. Remove from skillet and set aside.
- Add the shrimp and cook, stirring only occasionally, until the shrimp are opaque. Add in a little water if the sauce gets dry. Remove from the skillet and chop the shrimp into bite-size pieces.
- In a clean skillet, heat some butter. Place a tortilla in the skillet, then layer on the ingredients: cheese, vegetables and shrimp. Top with a little more cheese and a second tortilla. Cook on both sides, adding butter before flipping to the other side so the tortilla isn't overly dry. Remove from the skillet and slice into wedges. Repeat with the rest of the tortillas and filling ingredients.
- Remove the quesadilla from the skillet and slice it into 4 wedges using a large pizza cutter.
- Serve the quesadilla with pico de gallo, guacamole and sour cream.
PORK VOLCáNES AL PASTOR
Thinly slicing the pork and cooking it with plenty of marinade still clinging in a hot skillet yields the charred edges and deep flavor of traditional spit-roasted pastor.

Steps:
- Place pork shoulder on a parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet and freeze, uncovered, until almost completely frozen, about 2 hours. Using a very sharp knife, thinly slice pork (shoot for about ⅛" thick). Transfer to a large bowl.
- Meanwhile, bring guajillo and morita chiles and 1 cup water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Cover, remove from heat, and let sit 30 minutes to allow chiles to soften.
- Transfer chiles and soaking liquid to a blender. Add garlic, orange juice, lime juice, achiote paste, and salt; purée until smooth. Pour over pork and toss to coat. Cover and let sit at room temperature 2 hours, or chill up to 6 hours.
- Place a rack in middle of oven; preheat to 350°F. Evenly space out tortillas on a baking sheet and bake until lightly toasted and very crisp (edges will curl and pucker), 35-45 minutes.
- Heat 1 Tbsp. oil in a large nonstick skillet over high until smoking. Spread about one-fourth of pork across skillet in a single layer; cook, undisturbed, until browned underneath, about 2 minutes. Turn over and cook, undisturbed, until browned underneath and cooked through, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a platter and wipe out skillet. Working in 3 batches, repeat process with remaining pork and 3 Tbsp. oil.
- Increase oven temperature to 500°F. Divide pork among tostadas and top with quesillo; bake until cheese is melted, 8-10 minutes. Top with onion and cilantro and serve with lime wedges.
PINEAPPLE QUESITO
This is a Quesito -- perfect in its simplicity: flaky puff pastry wrapped around sweetened cream cheese and buttery pineapple. It's beautiful in a shabby chic kind of way, nothing fussy, just rustic goodness with a generous dusting of powdered sugar. The best thing is that you can whip this together in about 10 minutes and instantly satisfy your craving for something sweet. The Quesito is a traditional breakfast pastry from Puerto Rico. You can find them in every bakery and coffee shop, filled with everything from guava paste, passion fruit and pineapple. They are also delicious with nothing but the sweetened cheese.

Steps:
- To make the quesitos:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line two baking trays with parchment paper.
- In saucepan melt the butter over medium heat; add the brown sugar, pineapple and vanilla bean, with the seeds. Cook until the pineapple is tender and the juices have thickened to a syrup. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly while you make the cheese filling.
- To make cheese filling: In a bowl mix together the cream cheese, sugar and vanilla until smooth.
- Cut the puff pastry into 4- to 5-inch squares, depending on the size of the puff pastry sheet you have. Spread the cheese filling in the middle of each piece of pastry.
- Place the pineapples over the cheese filling. Brush the points of the pastry with the egg wash. Fold one side over the filling, and then tuck the other point under the pastry, to create a roll.
- Tuck the points under the filled pastry, which will puff up high and keep the filling in the center.
- Brush with more egg wash and sprinkle generously with sugar.
- Bake for about 25 minutes or until golden brown and crisp. You may have to rotate the two trays, top to bottom and back to front, to make sure they are baking evenly. They will be light and puffy when they are done. Allow them to cool.
- Dust with confectioners' sugar.
- They are fantastic with a cup of coffee.
