Ingredients
2 flour tortillas (8 inches each)
1 1/2 ounces Monterey Jack cheese, grated (1/2 cup)
1/4 pound medium shrimp, peeled, deveined, and halved lengthwise
1/2 teaspoon vegetable oil
1/8 teaspoon chili powder
Coarse salt and ground pepper
1 teaspoon finely chopped scallions, white parts only
1 teaspoon chopped fresh cilantro
Lime wedges
Preparation
Preheat oven to 475 degrees. Place tortillas on a rimmed baking sheet; sprinkle each with cheese. Bake until cheese is melted and tortilla edges are just beginning to crisp, about 3 minutes. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine shrimp, vegetable oil, and chili powder; season with salt and pepper. Divide shrimp mixture and scallions between tortillas. Bake until shrimp is opaque throughout, about 4 minutes. Sprinkle quesadillas with cilantro and cut each into 6 wedges; serve with lime wedges.
