QUESADILLA RECIPE BEEF RECIPES

Steps:

• Heat oil in a nonstick skillet, add one tortilla. Layer with half the cheddar cheese, all of the chicken and mushrooms and half the Monterey Jack cheese. Top with the second tortilla. Cover and heat until cheese melts and bottom tortilla is crisp and golden brown., Turn over; sprinkle remaining cheese on top. Cook until bottom tortilla is crisp and golden brown and cheese is melted. Cut into wedges; serve with sour cream and salsa if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200°F. Heat 1 teaspoon of the oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Add ground chuck, onion, garlic, and salt; cook, stirring occasionally, until beef is browned and cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes. Add taco seasoning mix and tomato paste; cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant and toasted, about 1 minute. Remove beef mixture, and drain. Do not wipe skillet clean.
• Sprinkle each tortilla evenly with 1/2 cup cheese, and top each with 3/4 cup meat mixture; fold tortillas in half.  Heat 1 teaspoon of the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium; add 2 quesadillas, and cook until golden brown and crisp, 1 to 2 minutes. Using a spatula, turn quesadillas over, and cook 1 more minute. Transfer hot quesadillas to a baking sheet, and keep warm in preheated oven. Repeat with remaining 1 teaspoon oil and 2 quesadillas. Serve with sour cream, guacamole, and salsa.
