Ingredients

Directions

  1. Finely chop the cilantro and scallions.
  2. In a small bowl, combine the shredded cheese, corn kernels, mayonnaise, chopped scallions, chopped cilantro, and adobo fresco. Mix well.
  3. Lightly brush one side of a tortilla with vegetable oil. Flip the tortilla over and spread half of the filling over one half of the tortilla. Fold the other half over to create a half-moon shape.
  4. Repeat the process to assemble the remaining 3 quesadillas.
  5. Heat a lightly oiled grill pan over medium heat. Once hot, cook the quesadillas in batches of two. Cook for about 4 minutes total per batch, flipping them over once, or until the cheese is melted and the tortillas are golden brown.
  6. Transfer the cooked quesadillas to a cutting board and cut each in half. Serve immediately.
