Ingredients
Scale
- 4 flour tortillas (9 inches)
- 3 tbsp sour cream
- 1 cup cheddar cheese (shredded)
- 1 4 oz can green chiles (drained well and dried on a paper towel)
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1/4 tsp granulated garlic
- 1/4 tsp cumin
- 1/4 tsp smoked paprika
Instructions
- Begin by preparing the filling ingredients. Open the can of chiles and drain the liquid completely. Pour the chiles onto a paper towel and pat them dry to remove any excess liquid.
- In a bowl, combine the drained chiles with sour cream, cheddar cheese, and the specified spices. Mix until you have a thick and spreadable mixture.
- Spread half of the mixture over one tortilla and the remaining half on another tortilla, creating two quesadillas in total.
- Spray a nonstick skillet with cooking spray and heat it over medium heat. Cook the quesadillas in the skillet until both sides are toasted and the filling is melted, then repeat with the second quesadilla.
- Slice the quesadillas and serve as desired. Enjoy!
Notes
Make sure to drain the green chiles completely to avoid a soggy quesadilla.
