Kimchi Quesadillas

By Tasty20 min🍽 2 servings

Upgrade your quesadilla game with this unique and spicy twist by adding kimchi and gooey cheese.

Instructions

  1. 1

    Drain kimchi and roughly chop.

  2. 2

    Add butter to a large skillet over medium-high heat. When melted, add kimchi.

  3. 3

    Cook and stir for about 6 minutes until the edges of the kimchi start to turn a golden brown. Transfer to a bowl and let it cool down.

  4. 4

    Add the kimchi, cheese, and sesame seeds to a tortilla. Fold the tortilla in half.

  5. 5

    Pour oil into a large skillet over medium heat. Fry the quesadilla for about two minutes on each side, or until the tortilla has turned a golden brown and the cheese has melted.

  7. 7

    NOTE: Experiment with proteins by adding beef, pork, or chicken to the quesadillas. For even more of a Korean influence, try adding Korean BBQ-style proteins!
