Ingredients:
- 8 large flour tortillas
- 1½ cups cheddar (shredded)
- 1 cup nacho cheese sauce
- ½ cup sour cream
- Beef
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- ½ teaspoon ground cumin
- ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
- Kosher salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- Cilantro-Lime Rice
- 2 cups cooked white rice
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 2 tablespoons cilantro (finely chopped)
Directions
Heat a medium skillet over medium-high heat then add beef, chili powder, cumin and paprika. Season with salt and pepper and cook until beef is no longer pink, about 6 minutes. Drain fat.
In a medium bowl, toss together white rice, lime juice and cilantro using a fork. Set aside.
Heat a large nonstick pan over medium-high heat. When the pan is hot, add a tortilla and sprinkle cheddar cheese all over. Top with a second flour tortilla and cook until the cheese has melted, about 2 minutes per side. Repeat with remaining tortillas and cheddar to make 4 quesadillas.
Working on a cutting board or plate, top the center of one quesadilla with some rice, meat, nacho cheese sauce and sour cream. Roll up into a burrito. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
Reheat the nonstick pan over medium-high heat. When the pan is hot, add two quesaritos and cook until the outside quesadilla is golden and slightly crispy, 3-5 minutes per side. Serve immediately.
