Ingredients
- 1 pound raw peeled and deveined shrimp
- kosher salt and pepper
- olive oil, for cooking and brushing
- 2 tablespoons hot honey
- 1 chipotle pepper, diced
- 1 tablespoon adobo sauce, from the can of chipotles
- 1 ripe mango, diced
- ½ cup cherry tomatoes quartered or diced
- 3 tablespoons red onion, diced
- 3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 lime, juiced
- 4 flour tortillas, I use soft taco size
- 6 ounces sharp cheddar, grated
- 3 ounces monterey jack cheese, grated
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Brush a baking sheet with a drop of olive oil.
- Pat the shrimp completely dry with a paper towel. Season it all over with salt and pepper.
- Heat ½ tablespoons of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the shrimp in a single layer and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, until pink and opaque. Flip the shrimp. Add in the hot honey and chipotles. Cook for another 2 to 3 minutes, letting the honey chipotle sauce bubble. Turn off the heat.
- To make the mango salsa, combine the mango, tomatoes, onion, cilantro and lime juice with a big pinch of salt and pepper. Stir together and let sit for a few minutes.
- To make the quesadillas, place a tortilla on the baking sheet and fill one side with a sprinkling of cheese, the shrimp mixture, a little bit of salsa and another sprinkling of cheese. Top with a tortilla and brush the top side with olive oil. Repeat with remaining tortillas and ingredients.
- Bake for 8 minutes. Gently flip and bake for 8 minutes more.
- Remove and slice in triangles. Serve with the mango salsa!
