Shrimp Mango Quesadillas
Ingredients:
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1⁄2 pound medium raw shrimp, peeled, deveined, and tails removed
3⁄4 teaspoon kosher salt, divided
1⁄2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, divided
6 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1⁄4 cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves
4 tablespoons (1⁄2 stick) unsalted butter, softened, divided
4 burrito-size (10-inch) flour tortillas
1 cup chopped mango, divided
Method:
1. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the shrimp, 1⁄2 teaspoon of the salt, and 1⁄4 teaspoon of the pepper, and cook, stirring, for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat.
2. Add the cream cheese, cheddar cheese, cilantro, and the remaining 1⁄4 teaspoon salt and 1⁄4 teaspoon pepper to a medium bowl and stir until well combined.
3. Heat a separate large skillet over medium heat. Spread 1 tablespoon of the butter on one side of a tortilla and place the tortilla buttered side down in the skillet. Spread 1⁄4 cup of the cheese spread over the top of the tortilla. Top with 1⁄4 cup of the cooked shrimp and 1⁄4 cup of the chopped mango on half of the tortilla. With a spatula, fold the tortilla in half, cooking until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes on each side. Remove from the skillet and cut the quesadillas into wedges to serve. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
