Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
8 ounces sweet Italian sausage, casings removed
2 bell peppers (any color), sliced
1 small onion, sliced
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 teaspoon dried oregano
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 1/3 cups marinara sauce
4 large flour tortillas (burrito-size)
1 8-ounce bag shredded mozzarella cheese (about 2 cups)
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon and stirring occasionally, until browned and mostly cooked through, about 5 minutes.
Add the bell peppers, onion, garlic, oregano, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender, about 15 minutes. Add 1/3 cup each marinara sauce and water and cook, stirring, until the vegetables are lightly coated and the skillet is mostly dry, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl and carefully wipe out the skillet.
Lay the tortillas on a work surface. Top one side of each tortilla with 1/4 cup mozzarella, 1/2 tablespoon Parmesan, one-quarter of the sausage-and-peppers mixture and another 1/4 cup mozzarella and 1/2 tablespoon Parmesan. Fold the tortillas over the filling and gently press.
Brush the tortillas with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Working in two batches, cook the quesadillas in the reserved skillet over medium heat until browned, about 2 minutes per side.
Warm the remaining 1 cup marinara sauce in a small saucepan or the microwave. Cut the quesadillas into wedges. Serve with the sauce for dipping.

Ingredients

8 flour tortillas (10-inch)
1 chorizo sausage (about 2 1/2 ounces), coarsely chopped
1 red bell pepper (ribs and seeds removed), cut into 1/4-inch dice (1 cup)
3 scallions, thinly sliced
2 cups shredded (8 ounces) Monterey Jack cheese
Prepared green or red salsa, for serving (optional)

Steps:

Assemble quesadillas: Place 4 tortillas on a work surface. Dividing evenly, scatter chorizo, bell pepper, and scallions over each, leaving a 1/2-inch border all around. Sprinkle 1/2 cup cheese over each, and top with remaining tortillas. Press lightly to seal.
Place 1 quesadilla on a paper towel. Top with another paper towel, a quesadilla, and a third paper towel. Microwave the 2 stacked quesadillas on high for 2 minutes or until cheese has melted. Carefully unstack quesadillas (they will be very hot), and remove paper towels. Place on a platter. Repeat with remaining 2 quesadillas.
Cut each quesadilla into 4 wedges and serve with salsa, if desired.
