Lime Shrimp Quesadillas with Adobo Guacamole
Serves: 8 Prep Time: 20 Min Cook Time: 30 Min

Ingredients

FOR QUESADILLA
1 Tbsp olive oil
1 lb shelled & deveined shrimp
3 clove garlic, peeled and finely chopped
1 limes
4-5 c pepper jack cheese, shredded
16 flour tortillas
1 can(s) vegetable cooking spray

FOR GUACAMOLE
3 avocados
3 chiles in adobo sauce
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp dried cilantro
salt & pepper to taste
1 lime

Directions

1 PREP: In a medium pan, add one Tbsp of olive oil, chopped garlic and the juice from 1 lime over medium-high heat.
Once hot, add the shrimp and sauté until fully cooked (pink & opaque, approx 5 min). Remove to clean cutting board and roughly chop.

2 FOR QUESADILLAS: *Note - Spray down pan with oil between each quesadilla.
Over medium heat, lay out 2 tortillas for approx 1 min each side. (You can do all of them ahead of time and keep under a tea towel to keep warm or two at a time as you go.)
Lay one tortilla into pan, add cheese, shrimp, and another layer of cheese. Lay another tortilla on top and mash down with a spatula. Cook for approx 4min on each side or until cheese is melted.
Once off the stove, cut the quesadillas into quarters and serve!

3 FOR GUACAMOLE: In food processor, combine the meat of 3 avocados, the juice of 1 lime, garlic powder, cilantro, chilies in adobo sauce & salt and pepper. Pulse together until creamy. I highly recommend tasting and adjusting to your preference. Some don't like as much cilantro, some may want it spicier and add more chilies!
