Shrimp Quesadillas With Cilantro And Lime Recipes

Steps:

• Combine first 5 ingredients; set aside.
• Heat large skillet sprayed with cooking spray on medium heat. Add corn and peppers; cook and stir 3 to 5 min. or until peppers are crisp-tender. Stir in shrimp mixture; cook 2 min. or until heated through, stirring frequently. Spoon onto tortillas; top with cheese. Fold in half.
• Wipe out skillet with paper towels; spray with cooking spray. Add quesadillas, in batches; cook 3 to 4 min. or until golden brown on both sides, turning after 2 min.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Season the shrimp with salt and pepper, to taste. In a small skillet over medium heat, heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and saute the shrimp for 1 1/2 minutes on each side. Reserve for garnish.
• Place 2 tortillas on an ungreased baking sheet, sprinkle half the cheeses and 1 1/2 tablespoons pesto on each, and season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Stack the 2 layers and cover with the remaining tortilla. Brush with 1 tablespoon oil and sprinkle evenly with ancho chile powder. May be prepared 1 day ahead up to this point and refrigerated. Bake for 8 to 12 minutes or until the tortillas are slightly crisp and the cheese has melted.
• Cut into quarters and serve hot, garnished with the shrimp, more pesto, and sour cream.
• In a food processor, combine cilantro, garlic, pumpkinseeds, lime juice, salt and pepper. With the motor running, slowly add the olive oil until sauce is emulsified. May be prepared up to 2 days ahead, covered, and refrigerated. Bring to room temperature 1 hour before serving.
• Yield: 1 cup

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir onion, red bell pepper, and green bell pepper in the hot oil, stirring frequently, until onion is translucent and peppers are soft, 6 to 8 minutes.
• Stir salt, cumin, and chili powder into onion and bell peppers.
• Stir shrimp into onion and bell peppers and cook until shrimp are opaque and no longer pink in the center, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Remove skillet from heat; stir jalapeno pepper and lime juice into shrimp mixture.
• Heat a skillet over medium heat and brush with about 1 teaspoon vegetable oil.
• Place a tortilla in the hot oil. Spoon about 1/6 shrimp filling and 1/2 cup Mexican cheese blend on one side of tortilla. Fold tortilla in half.
• Cook until bottom of tortilla is lightly browned, about 5 minutes; flip and cook other side until lightly browned, 3 to 5 minutes. Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling.

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

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Saute red pepper and onion until soft, about 5 minutes. Add corn, red pepper flakes, cumin, and salt and pepper to taste. Toss to incorporate and saute for 3 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and add the cilantro. Preheat a long, 2-burner cast iron griddle, or a large saute pan over medium heat. Lay 2 tortillas on a work surface and spread each evenly with refried black beans. Place tortillas, bean side up, on the griddle (begin with 1 if using a saute pan). Sprinkle onion-red pepper mixture evenly over the top of each, then sprinkle evenly with the cheese. Cover with another tortilla coated with refried black beans and cook until cheese melts, about 4 minutes. Flip quesadillas to toast the other side. Slice each quesadilla into 8 wedges, sprinkle with cilantro, and serve with Lime-Cilantro Sour Cream.
• In a small bowl, mix all ingredients together until combined. Season, to taste, with salt if needed.

Steps:

• Place first 11 ingredients in a large bowl; toss to combine. Gently stir in avocado; let stand 15 minutes., In a small bowl, mix sauce ingredients. To serve, spread tostada shells with sauce. Top with shrimp mixture.

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add bell pepper, scallions, cumin, and chipotle powder. Cook, stirring frequently, until vegetables are tender, about 3 minutes. Add shrimp and stir frequently until bright pink on the outside and the meat is opaque, 4 to 5 minutes. Add Monterey Jack cheese, reduce heat to medium, and stir until cheese is melted and mixed in with shrimp and vegetables. Remove from heat.
• Place 1/5 of the filling mixture onto half of one tortilla. Fold empty side over the filling and press firmly to form a half circle. Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling. Brush both sides of tortillas with remaining olive oil.
• Place tortillas in a large skillet over medium-high heat and cook until crisp and golden, 3 to 5 minutes per side.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 475 degrees. Place tortillas on a rimmed baking sheet; sprinkle each with cheese. Bake until cheese is melted and tortilla edges are just beginning to crisp, about 3 minutes. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine shrimp, vegetable oil, and chili powder; season with salt and pepper. Divide shrimp mixture and scallions between tortillas. Bake until shrimp is opaque throughout, about 4 minutes. Sprinkle quesadillas with cilantro and cut each into 6 wedges; serve with lime wedges.

Steps:

• 1. PREP: In a medium pan, add one Tbsp of olive oil, chopped garlic and the juice from 1 lime over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the shrimp and sauté until fully cooked (pink & opaque, approx 5 min). Remove to clean cutting board and roughly chop.
• 2. FOR QUESADILLAS: *Note - Spray down pan with oil between each quesadilla. Over medium heat, lay out 2 tortillas for approx 1 min each side. (You can do all of them ahead of time and keep under a tea towel to keep warm or two at a time as you go.) Lay one tortilla into pan, add cheese, shrimp, and another layer of cheese. Lay another tortilla on top and mash down with a spatula. Cook for approx 4min on each side or until cheese is melted. Once off the stove, cut the quesadillas into quarters and serve!
• 3. FOR GUACAMOLE: In food processor, combine the meat of 3 avocados, the juice of 1 lime, garlic powder, cilantro, chilies in adobo sauce & salt and pepper. Pulse together until creamy. I highly recommend tasting and adjusting to your preference. Some don't like as much cilantro, some may want it spicier and add more chilies!
