Directions:

  1. Preheat Your Cooktop: Set your cooktop to medium-low heat.
  2. Prepare the Tortillas: While it’s heating, lightly butter one side of each tortilla.
  3. Assemble the Quesadilla: Place one tortilla butter side down in the skillet. Immediately sprinkle cheese over the non-buttered side.
  4. Add Fillings: Layer on your choice of fillings and a sprinkle of seasonings.
  5. Top It Off: Place the second tortilla on top, butter side up.
  6. Cook and Flip: Carefully flip the quesadilla and cook until both sides are golden brown and the cheese is melted.
  7. Serve: Remove from heat, slice into wedges, and serve with your favorite toppings like sour cream and salsa.

Cooking these at a lower temperature allows the tortillas to get perfectly crispy while the cheese melts beautifully. It’s tempting to rush, but patience will reward you with golden-brown perfection instead of blackened tortillas and unmelted cheese.

If your RV has an outdoor kitchen with a flat-top griddle, this recipe is perfect for that setup. Enjoy the fresh air while cooking up a delicious meal!
