A southern American twist on this simple, classic Mexican dish! Ingredients:
2 tablespoons olive oil |
1/2 large yellow onion, sliced thin |
6 slices bacon, diced |
1 tablespoon brown sugar |
8 (10 inch) flour tortillas |
1 cup spicy barbeque sauce |
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro |
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese |
Directions:
1. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat in a large skillet. Add onion; cook and stir onions until softened about 5 minutes. Stir in bacon pieces and brown sugar, and cook until bacon pieces are crisp. Remove from skillet.
2. Spread 1/4 cup barbecue sauce on one tortilla. Sprinkle with 1/4 of the bacon and onion mixture, 1 tablespoon cilantro, and 1/2 cup Cheddar cheese. Top with a tortilla.
3. Heat 1 teaspoon olive oil over medium heat in a large skillet. Place the uncooked quesadilla in the skillet. Cook on one side until browned and crisp, about 3 minutes. Flip, and cook on the other side until the cheese is completely melted, about 2 minutes more. Remove to a paper towel lined plate to cool. Repeat with remaining six tortillas. Slice into quarters using a sharp knife or kitchen scissors when cool enough to handle.
