Ingredients
Oops! Something went wrong. Our team is working on it.
¼ (16 ounce) jar roasted red peppers, drained and minced
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro, or to taste
2 small limes, juiced
¼ teaspoon chili powder
8 large shrimp – peeled, deveined, and chopped into bite-sized pieces
2 teaspoons olive oil
¼ small onion, minced
4 (8 inch) flour tortillas
½ cup shredded Mexican cheese blend
Directions
Combine roasted red peppers, cilantro, lime juice, and chili powder in a shallow dish. Toss chopped shrimp in the lime mixture. Chill in the refrigerator.
Meanwhile, heat a skillet over medium heat and add olive oil. Saute onion in the hot oil until tender and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add shrimp and lime mixture and saute until shrimp are pink and cooked through, about 3 minutes. Remove mixture from the skillet.
Assemble quesadillas by placing shrimp mixture and Mexican cheese in between 2 tortillas.
Heat tortillas in the skillet over medium-low heat until cheese is melted and tortillas are crispy, 3 to 4 minutes. Cut quesadillas into bite-sized segments and serve.
Cook's Note:
You can substitute any cheese of your choice for the Mexican cheese blend.
