Quesadillas with Shrimp and Peppers image

Provided by Ree Drummond : Food Network

Categories     appetizer

Time 35m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup Mexican red sauce
12 large shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large onion, chopped into chunks
1 green bell pepper, chopped into chunks
1 red bell pepper, chopped into chunks
Butter, for cooking tortillas
6 flour tortillas
2 cups grated cheese (Monterey Jack is best)
Sour cream, for serving
Fresh cilantro leaves, for serving
Lime wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • On a large plate, pour the red sauce over the shrimp and set aside.
  • Heat a skillet over high heat and add the olive oil. Cook the onions and bell peppers over high heat until they start to get nicely browned. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
  • Add the shrimp with the sauce. 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.
  • Serve with sour cream, cilantro and lime wedges

Time 1h20m

Yield 2 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

8 ounces pepper jack cheese
Six 16-20 count unpeeled shrimp, deveined
Olive oil, for drizzling
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
2 large flour tortillas
1/4 cup chopped roasted red pepper
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves

Steps:

  • Place cheese in freezer for around 45 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Drizzle shrimp with olive oil in a large bowl. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Spread on a baking sheet and bake, rotating once, until just cooked through, 7 to 9 minutes.
  • When shrimp are cool enough to handle, remove and discard peels and tails. Cut shrimp into thirds.
  • Shred cheese using the large holes on a box grater.
  • Spread 1 tablespoon mayonnaise on one side of a tortilla. Place tortilla, mayo-side down, in a large skillet. Sprinkle half the cheese evenly over the top of the entire tortilla, then turn heat on to medium-low heat. While pan is heating, sprinkle half of the chopped shrimp, half of the roasted red peppers and half of the cilantro on one half of the tortilla, leaving the other half with just cheese. Let quesadilla cook, checking that the bottom of the tortilla doesn't burn, until cheese is mostly melted, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove skillet from heat and carefully fold the quesadilla in half like a book, folding the cheese side over the toppings. Place quesadilla on a plate and let rest 5 minutes. Repeat with second tortilla and ingredients. Cut into wedges before serving.
