Ingredients For the shrimp quesadillas 🍤🌮 * 1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined * 1 tbsp olive oil * 1 tsp chili powder * 1 tsp smoked paprika * ½ tsp garlic powder * ½ tsp cumin * ½ tsp salt * Juice of ½ lime * 1 small red bell pepper, diced * ¼ red onion, diced * 2 cups shredded Monterey Jack or Mexican-blend cheese * 4 large flour tortillas * Butter or oil, for cooking * Fresh cilantro, for serving Creamy Chipotle Sauce 🌶️ * ½ cup Greek yogurt or sour cream * 1–2 chipotle peppers in adobo * 1 tbsp adobo sauce * Juice of ½ lime * 1 small garlic clove * ½ tsp honey * ¼ tsp salt Instructions 1. Make the creamy chipotle sauce. Blend the Greek yogurt, chipotle peppers, adobo sauce, lime juice, garlic, honey, and salt until smooth. Refrigerate while you prepare the quesadillas. 2. Season the shrimp. Toss the shrimp with olive oil, chili powder, smoked paprika, garlic powder, cumin, salt, and lime juice. 3. Cook the vegetables. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the bell pepper and onion and cook for 3–4 minutes until slightly softened. 4. Cook the shrimp. Add the seasoned shrimp and cook for about 2–3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until pink and cooked through. Remove the mixture from the skillet. 5. Assemble the quesadillas. Add a tortilla to the skillet. Sprinkle cheese over half, add the shrimp and vegetable mixture, drizzle with a little creamy chipotle sauce, then add another layer of cheese. Fold the tortilla in half. 6. Make them crispy. Cook for 2–3 minutes per side over medium heat until golden and crispy and the cheese is melted. 7. Cut into wedges and serve with extra creamy chipotle sauce, fresh cilantro, and lime wedges. Tip: Keep most of the chipotle sauce for dipping and use just a small drizzle inside the quesadilla so the tortilla stays nice and crispy. . . #EasyRecipe #DinnerIdeas #easydinnerideas #dinnerrecipes #dinnerinspo , family dinners, 30 minutes meals, one pan dinners, shrimp recipes, easy meals, easy recipes
