Sheet Pan Quesadillas

Here’s the recipe for Sheet Pan Quesadillas:

Ingredients:

• 1 tbsp. Extra-virgin olive oil
• 2 bell peppers, chopped
• 1 onion, chopped
• 1 1/2 lb. Ground beef
• 1 tsp. Chili powder
• 1 tsp. Cumin
• 1/2 tsp. Smoked paprika
• Kosher salt
• Freshly ground black pepper
• 8 large flour tortillas
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
• 2 green onions, thinly sliced
• Sour cream, for garnish
• Pico de gallo, for garnish

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
2. In a large skillet over medium heat, heat the olive oil. Add the chopped bell peppers and onion, and cook until they are soft, about 5 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
3. Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until it is no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Drain any excess fat, then stir in the cumin, chili powder, paprika, and season with salt and pepper.
4. On a half sheet pan, arrange 6 tortillas around the edges of the pan so that about half of each tortilla hangs over the side. Place another tortilla in the center to cover the pan completely.

1. Spread the cooked ground beef mixture, pepper and onion mixture, shredded cheddar and Monterey Jack cheeses, and sliced green onions evenly over the tortillas on the sheet pan.
2. Place another tortilla in the center (on top of all fillings), then fold each tortilla towards the center.
3. Place a second baking sheet on top of the tortillas to help the quesadilla hold its shape.
4. Bake in the preheated oven until the tortillas are beginning to turn crispy, about 20 minutes. Remove the top baking sheet and continue baking until the tortillas are golden and crispy, about 15 minutes more.
5. Slice the quesadillas into rectangles and serve warm with sour cream and pico de gallo.
