How to Make Shrimp Quesadillas
- In a medium bowl, combine cooked shrimp, 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese, 1/4 cup chopped cilantro, and 1 tablespoon of lime juice. Gently toss to combine.
- Lay out four large flour tortillas on a clean surface.
- Divide the shrimp mixture evenly among two tortillas, spreading it over one half of each tortilla.
- Top each filled tortilla with the remaining 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese and sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon of garlic powder.
- Fold the tortillas in half, pressing gently to seal the edges.
- Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add a small amount of cooking oil (about 1 teaspoon) to the skillet.
- Cook the quesadillas for 2-3 minutes per side, or until the tortillas are golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly. Alternatively, bake at 375°F (190°C) for 8-10 minutes, or until golden and heated through.
- Remove from heat and let cool slightly before slicing into wedges. Serve immediately and enjoy!
