Serve up easy caprese quesadillas with Sonoma Gourmet Cherry Tomato Basil Sauce in under 30 minutes.

Provided by Sonoma Gourmet

Categories     Entree

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 jar Sonoma Gourmet Cherry Tomato Basil Sauce
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
6 flour tortillas
12 ounces fresh mozzarella, thinly sliced or torn
1/2 cup fresh basil, roughly chopped
3 teaspoons balsamic vinegar, plus more for garnish
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F. Heat the sauce in a medium saucepan for 5 minutes and then set aside. Heat a skillet and add 1 tablespoon of butter. Once the butter has melted, place a tortilla in the skillet and let heat for 10 seconds. Spread a few spoonfuls of sauce over the tortilla, going almost to the edge. Add 1/3 of the mozzarella, 1/3 of the basil, a teaspoon of balsamic, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Top with the other tortilla and press down with your spatula for 30 to 45 seconds, checking the bottom to make sure it isn't burning. Carefully flip the quesadilla using two spatulas and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes until the other side is golden brown and the cheese is melted. Slide the quesadilla onto a plate and put in the oven while you make the other quesadillas. Once all quesadillas are done cooking, move them to a cutting board and cut into wedges. Drizzle each wedge with more balsamic and serve with a side of sauce for dipping.
