Ingredients

  • 1 flour tortilla - cooked or uncooked
  • ¼ cup shredded Asadero - or Queso Quesadilla Cheese
  • 1 teaspoon sliced pickled jalapeno peppers

Instructions
 

  • If using uncooked tortillas, brown one side in an UNGREASED nonstick skillet over medium heat and turn over. If using previously cooked tortillas, lay a tortilla in a hot UNGREASED nonstick skillet.
  • Sprinkle cheese lightly over top of the tortilla, then chopped jalapeno peppers.  I use a teaspoon of peppers per tortilla but the amount is up to you. 
  • Allow the tortilla to heat until the cheese melts. Gently mash with a spatula, if necessary, to help the cheese melt.
  • Flip tortilla over so that cheese is now in contact with the skillet. Allow the tortilla to fry until cheese is browned and crispy.  It should be easy to scoop out when cooked in a nonstick pan. 
  • Use a pizza cutter or kitchen scissors to cut into wedges.
