GOAT CHEESE QUESADILLAS WITH TOMATO AND CORN SALSA



Goat Cheese Quesadillas with Tomato and Corn Salsa image

Provided by Robin Donovan

Categories     Tomato     Vegetarian     Quick & Easy     Father's Day     Goat Cheese     Summer     Tortillas

Yield Serves 8 to 10 as an appetizer, 4 to 6 as an entrée

Number Of Ingredients 4

Olive oil spray or nonstick cooking spray
8 10-inch flour tortillas
12 ounces soft fresh goat cheese, crumbled (about 1 1/2 cups)
Tomato and Corn Salsaepi:recipelink

Steps:

  • Grill Method:
  • Spray one side of a tortilla with oil and place it, oiled side down, on the grill over medium-high heat. Top with one-quarter (about 3 ounces) of the cheese and one-quarter of the salsa. Spray one side of a second tortilla with oil, and place it on top of the first, oiled side up. Cook, about 3 minutes, until the bottom tortilla is golden brown. Turn the quesadilla over and continue cooking, about 3 minutes more, until the bottom is golden brown and the cheese is melted. Remove from the grill and cut into wedges. Repeat with the remaining tortillas, cheese, and salsa. Serve immediately.
  • Camp Stove Method:
  • Spray a large skillet with oil and warm over medium-high heat on the stove. Place 1 tortilla in the hot skillet, and top with one-quarter (about 3 ounces) of the cheese and one-quarter of the salsa. Top with a second tortilla. Cook, about 3 minutes, until the bottom tortilla is golden brown. Turn the quesadilla over and continue cooking, about 3 minutes more, until the bottom is golden brown and the cheese is melted. Remove from the skillet and cut into wedges. Repeat with the remaining tortillas, cheese, and salsa. Serve immediately.
  • Make It at Home:
  • Make it a meal by adding broiled shrimp. Preheat the broiler. Spread 1 pound of peeled shrimp in a single layer on a baking sheet, spray with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Broil, about 2 minutes, until the shrimp is cooked through. Split each shrimp in half lengthwise. Continue with preparation per the camp-stove method. Add 1/4 cup of the shrimp to each quesadilla along with the cheese and salsa.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh corn. Fresh corn has a sweeter flavor and is more tender than frozen or canned corn.
  • Roast the corn before adding it to the quesadillas. Roasting the corn intensifies its flavor and gives it a slightly smoky taste.
  • Use a variety of cheeses. A combination of goat cheese, cheddar cheese, and mozzarella cheese gives the quesadillas a rich and flavorful filling.
  • Add some herbs or spices to the filling. A sprinkle of chili powder, cumin, or oregano adds a nice flavor to the quesadillas.
  • Cook the quesadillas until they are golden brown and crispy. This ensures that the cheese is melted and the tortillas are cooked through.

Conclusion:

Goat cheese and roasted corn quesadillas are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a dish that is sure to please everyone at the table. Serve the quesadillas with your favorite dipping sauce, such as guacamole, salsa, or sour cream. You can also add a side of rice or beans for a complete meal.
