→ Main Ingredients
01 -
4 large flour tortillas
02 -
2 teaspoons butter
03 -
1½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese
04 -
1 cup Korean beef (prepared)
05 -
1 green onion, thinly sliced
# Instructions:
01 -
Preheat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Lightly butter one side of a tortilla with about ½ teaspoon butter and place it butter-side down in the hot pan.
02 -
On one half of the tortilla in the pan, sprinkle 3 tablespoons of mozzarella cheese, then add ¼ cup of Korean beef, and top with an additional 2-3 tablespoons of cheese. Finish with a sprinkle of sliced green onions.
03 -
Fold the empty half of the tortilla over the filled half, creating a half-moon shape. Press gently to seal and cook for 2-3 minutes until the bottom is golden brown and the cheese starts to melt.
04 -
Carefully flip the folded quesadilla using a spatula. Cook the other side for 2-3 minutes until golden brown and crispy, and the cheese is completely melted inside.
05 -
Transfer the quesadilla to a cutting board and cut in half while still hot. Serve immediately while the cheese is melty and the tortilla is crispy.
06 -
Repeat the entire process with the remaining 3 tortillas, using the same amounts of filling for each one. This recipe makes 4 individual quesadillas total.
