These extra-special quesadillas take just minutes to make, but you'll want to savor them for as long as possible. Sprinkle the cheesy wedges with chopped fresh cilantro. Ingredients:
1/2 cup creme fraiche or sour cream |
2 tablespoons minced chipotle peppers in adobo sauce |
2 tablespoons lime juice |
1/8 teaspoon salt |
1/8 teaspoon pepper |
quesadillas: |
1/4 cup cream cheese, softened |
2 ounces fresh goat cheese |
3 flour tortillas (8 inches) |
3 ounces smoked salmon or lox, chopped |
1/4 cup finely chopped shallots |
1/4 cup finely chopped roasted sweet red pepper |
coarsely chopped fresh cilantro |
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, mix the first five ingredients. In another bowl, mix cream cheese and goat cheese until blended; spread over tortillas. Top half side of each with the salmon, shallots and red pepper; fold over.
2. Place quesadillas on a greased griddle. Cook over medium heat for 1-2 minutes on each side or until lightly browned and cheeses are melted. Serve with sauce; top with cilantro. Yield: 3 servings (2/3 cup sauce).
