Ingredients
- 3 tbsp Extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 cup Onion peeled and sliced
- 1 cup Green bell pepper seeded and sliced into strips
- 1/2 lb Ground turkey
- 1/2 tsp Chili powder
- 1/2 tsp Paprika
- 1/4 tsp Garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp Ground cumin
- 3 oz Cheddar cheese shredded
- 2 Tortilla wraps
- 4 tbsp Sour cream
Instructions
- Heat 1/3 of the oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat.
- Sauté the onion and peppers until they start to soften, about 4-6 minutes. Then add in the turkey, chili powder, paprika, garlic powder, cumin, and season with salt and pepper. Brown the turkey, breaking it up into smaller pieces. Add 1/4 cup of water and simmer until most of the liquid evaporates.
- Remove from the heat into a bowl and mix in the cheese. Spread the mixture into one half of the tortillas then fold the tortilla in half.
- Add some of the remaining oil as needed to a non-stick pan over medium heat.
- Place the quesadilla in the pan and cook on both sides to golden brown. Repeat for other portions.
- Cut into wedges and garnish with sour cream.
Notes
Pro Tip - watch the heat, don't be afraid to use a lower temperature so that the outside gradually comes to a golden brown while the cheese is melting.
