I had never made shrimp quesadillas and I wish I knew why. The flavors of the shrimp go so well with the freshness of the lime and cilantro. Crispy, warm tortilla with cheesy shrimp and a big dollop of creamy guacamole. This recipe is definitely going in my permanent repertoire. My mother passed this inspiration along, by way of a friend of hers who had made them for a bridal shower.
Make a bowl of your favorite guacamole (I mixed 4 avocados, crushed garlic, spoon of sour cream, chopped cilantro, jalapeno, onion, fresh lime juice, salt and pepper)
Quesadilla
1 lb raw shrimp
juice of 1/2 lemon
dash of hot sauce
3 cloves crushed garlic
dash of red chili flakes
salt, pepper
flour tortillas
mexican cheese blend
Marinate shrimp for about 1 hour. Heat some oil in a pan and sautee shrimp for a few minutes until they are pink (and cooked). Slide shrimp out onto a chopping board and chop up into small pieces. Clean pan, heat a little butter, place a tortilla on the pan, spoon out some shrimp, sprinkle some cheese, lay and press another tortilla on top. Flip over after a few minutes and let crisp on other side. Slide off and cut into quarters. Enjoy with fresh guacamole.
