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

I made these quesadillas for my family last night and they were a huge hit! Everyone loved the combination of shrimp and peppers, and the cheese was melted and gooey. I will definitely be making these again!

These quesadillas were easy to make and so flavorful! I used a variety of peppers, including red, green, and yellow, and they added a beautiful pop of color to the dish. The shrimp was cooked to perfection and the cheese was melted and gooey. I will
