Quesadilla de Jamon y Queso

Ingredientes

• 1 8-10" flour tortilla
• 1 teaspoon butter
• 1/3 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, Colby jack, Pepper jack, or Mexican cheese blend all work well)
• 2 slices black forest ham (chopped into 1/2-inch pieces, about 1/4 cup)
• sour cream, ranch dressing, or salsa (for serving)

Preparación

1. 1

   Warm a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Lightly butter a single side of one tortilla with butter and place it in the hot pan. Sprinkle about 3 tablespoons of cheese on half of the tortilla, top with ham and the remaining cheese.

2. 2

   Fold the tortilla over on itself and let it cook for 2-3 minutes. When the cheese has begun to melt and the bottom tortilla is browning slightly, flip the folded quesadilla over to cook the other side.

3. 3

   Continue to cook until all the cheese has melted and the tortilla is crisp around the edges and deeply golden brown. Using a spatula, transfer the quesadilla back to a cutting board and cut it into wedges while hot. Serve warm.
