Tcts Gone Wild Toasted Cheese Tortillas Recipes

HOMEMADE TORTILLAS

Steps:

• In a bowl, stir together the flour and salt. Stir in the vegetable oil, then slowly pour in the hot water, stirring gently. When the dough comes together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead it gently a few times to smooth it out.
• Heat a cast-iron skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Pinch off a piece of dough slightly smaller than a Ping-Pong ball and roll it into a 5-inch circle. It should be extremely thin.
• Cook on the dry skillet for about 1 minute on the first side, until it starts to brown a little, then flip it and cook for about 30 seconds on the second side. Remove and stack onto a kitchen towel, then repeat with the rest. As you stack the tortillas, wrap them in the kitchen towel while you cook the next ones.

FRENCH STYLE CHICKEN AND GOAT CHEESE TORTILLAS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Combine the grapes, walnuts and chives and set aside.
• Combine the goat's cheese with the parsley and thyme and season well to taste with salt and pepper. Mix a tablespoon or more of mustard and the lemon juice in the melted butter and brush some of this mixture over each tortilla. Set them on a baking sheet and top with some chicken and goat's cheese. Bake for 5 minutes or until warmed throughout and cheese has melted somewhat. Remove from oven, fold in half and serve topped with the grape, walnut and chive mixture.

TORTILLAS WITH CACTUS AND CHEESE

Steps:

• Season nopales with adobo seasoning. Fold seasoned nopales, Cheddar cheese, and cilantro inside tortillas.
• Place filled tortillas in a medium skillet over medium low heat, and warm until cheese is melted.

CHEESY TORTILLA WRAP

Steps:

• Lay 2 tortillas side-by-side on a grill pan. Scatter over all of the ingredients, then top with remaining tortillas. Cook under a medium grill for 3 mins until slightly crisp and golden. Turn, then cook the other side for 3 mins until the cheese has melted. Cut into wedges to serve. Great with guacamole or salsa.

TOASTED TORTILLA CHIPS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400ºF. Cut each tortilla into 6 pieces. Spread half of the tortilla chips on a baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes.
• Remove from the oven, turn each tortilla chip over and return them to the oven for 3 more minutes.
• Remove from the baking sheet and let them cool. Repeat with remaining tortilla chips.
• NOTE: other method is to fry the tortilla pieces in hot oil in a fryer, drain and to absorb the excess of oil, place them on paper towels and sprinkle with salt when they are still hot.

BEAN AND CHEESE TOASTERDILLA

Steps:

• Lay tortillas flat on a clean work surface. Spread refried beans down the middle third from top to bottom, leaving a 1-inch space halfway down to allow for a fold. Sprinkle cheese on top, lightly pressing into the beans.
• Fold the left side over the beans, then the right side on top, so the two sides are overlapping in the middle. Fold in half vertically so the bottom edge meets the top edge.
• Place the quesadillas into the toaster slots and set the toaster to medium heat. Toast for 1 cycle. Carefully remove quesadillas and reverse the vertical fold, so that the inside is now the outside. Return to the toaster and toast until lightly browned, about half a toasting cycle.
• Carefully remove the hot quesadillas to a plate. Cut in half at the fold to make 4 pieces.

TOASTED TORTILLAS WITH HERBED GOAT CHEESE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450° F.
• In a bowl mash together all ingredients except tortillas. On oven rack toast tortillas in middle of oven, turning them once, until just golden and crisp, about 2 minutes on each side, and cool on a rack. Spread tortillas with goat cheese mixture and cut into serving pieces.
