CRABMEAT QUESADILLAS



Crabmeat Quesadillas image

Crab quesadillas are the bar food version of fusion cuisine. Crabmeat along with green chiles and cheese makes for a very novel (and delicious) combo.

Time 15m

Yield 30 pcs

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/3 cup sour cream
8 ounces crabmeat, cooked and chopped
2 tablespoons finely chopped green onion
2 tablespoons chopped green chiles
10 (8-inch size) flour tortillas
2 tablespoons butter, melted

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven at 375 degrees F. Combine the cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream, crabmeat, green onion, and green chiles in a bowl. Mix well. The filling can be made ahead of time and refrigerated for up to 1 day. Place the tortillas on a baking sheet. Spread about 1/4 cup of the filling on one half of each tortilla. Fold the tortilla over to cover the filling. Brush the outsides of the tortilla with the melted butter. Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake at 375 degrees for 10-15 minutes or until lightly browned and heated through. Remove from the oven and cut into wedges. Serve hot.

  • Very lightly butter one side of each tortilla. Lay tortillas butter side down. Then spread crab mixture over half of each tortilla. Top crab mixture with shredded cheese. Fold bare tortilla half over the top of the crab and cheese. Lay quesadillas on hot grill grates for 2 to 3 minutes per side, or until each side is nicely charred and cheese is melted.
  • Serve with smoky salsa for dipping, plus lime wedges for squeezing over the top. You'll have enough smoky salsa for dipping your favorite tortilla chips, too.
