Sizzling Bacon Quesadillas with a BBQ Twist
  • Prep Time
    15 mins
  • Cook Time
    20 mins
  • Total Time
    35 mins

Ingredients

  • A pair of tablespoons of fragrant olive oil
  • Half of a sizable yellow onion, thinly sliced
  • Six pieces of diced flavorful bacon
  • A spoonful of rich brown sugar
  • Eight round, pliable flour tortillas measuring 10 inches each
  • A generous cup of zesty barbecue sauce
  • A quarter cup of finely chopped, vibrant cilantro
  • Two full cups of sharp Cheddar cheese, shredded

Step 1

In a spacious skillet over medium heat, warm up a tablespoon of olive oil. Add finely chopped onions and sauté until they turn tender, which usually takes about 5 minutes. Introduce the bacon bits and a dash of brown sugar into the mix, cooking until the bacon crisps up to perfection. Once done, transfer this savory blend from the skillet.

Step 2

Next, take a tortilla and generously spread a quarter cup of your favorite barbecue sauce on it. Sprinkle a quarter of the delicious bacon and onion medley, a tablespoon of fresh cilantro, and half a cup of shredded Cheddar cheese atop the saucy base. Finish off with another tortilla to create a flavorful stack.

Step 3

Now, drizzle a teaspoon of olive oil into the same skillet over medium heat. Place the assembled quesadilla into the skillet and let it cook until one side turns beautifully golden and crispy, which usually takes around 3 minutes. Carefully flip it over and continue cooking until the cheese inside melts into gooey goodness, approximately 2 more minutes. Transfer the finished quesadilla onto a plate lined with paper towels to cool down. Repeat this process with the remaining six tortillas. Once they are cool enough to handle, use a sharp knife or kitchen scissors to slice them into quarters for easy and delightful serving.

Extra Tips & Suggestions

  1. 1. Keep your bacon slices in a sealed container in the fridge to maintain freshness and prevent them from drying out.
  2. 2. Store your BBQ sauce in a glass jar with a tight-fitting lid to ensure it stays flavorful and ready to use when you're craving that tangy kick.
