How To Make Mushroom Quesadillas
- To make this recipe start with finely chopping the onion and mincing the garlic. Then reheat a skillet with olive oil over medium heat.
- Add the onion and garlic to the skillet and stir continuously to soften the onion and garlic. This takes 3-5 minutes.
- Add the butter and let it melt before adding the sliced mushrooms to the pan. Stir to combine the onion mixture with the mushrooms.
- Season the mushrooms with quesadilla seasoning and stir. Let the mushrooms brown. This will take about 3 minutes.
- Take the pan off the heat and put the mushroom mixture in a separate bowl. Heat the skillet again over medium heat and add olive oil. Add a flour tortilla to the pan.
- Divide the mushrooms into four equal parts and put ¼ of the mushrooms in the middle of the tortilla in a long strip like you would in an enchilada.
- Sprinkle cheese on top of the mushrooms and fold the tortilla in three. Bake the tortilla until brown. Check regularly because flour tortillas brown very fast.
- Flip the folded tortilla and bake the other side until brown. Take out of the pan and cut the folded tortilla into triangles as you can see below.
Mushroom Quesadilla Recipe
Quesadillas are one of the easiest recipes to make that you can turn into a full meal. Add a tasty quesadilla sauce and you have all you need. For these quesadillas, I used the enchiladas folding technique.
So put the filling in the middle of the tortilla and fold it close before turning the quesadilla. This way most of the filling will remain inside the tortilla and you can cut it into small triangles.
Turning into easy-to-handle quesadillas which is amazing.
