Ingredients

• 4 pieces Flour tortillas
• 200 grams Brie cheese
• 1 large Fresh mango
• 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro
• 1 small Jalapeño
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 1 teaspoon Honey (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Peel the mango, remove the pit, and slice the flesh into thin strips approximately 2 to 3 inches long.

Step 2

Remove the rind from the brie cheese and slice it into thin, even pieces.

Step 3

Finely chop the fresh cilantro and the jalapeño (remove seeds if you prefer less spice).

Step 4

Lay two tortillas flat on a clean surface. Evenly distribute the brie slices, mango strips, chopped cilantro, and jalapeño on each tortilla.

Step 5

Drizzle a small amount of honey over the filling if desired for added sweetness.

Step 6

Place the remaining two tortillas on top, creating a sandwich-like structure.

Step 7

Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter, allowing it to melt and coat the pan.

Step 8

Carefully place one quesadilla in the skillet and cook for 3 to 4 minutes on each side, or until the tortilla is golden brown and the cheese is melted. Repeat with the second quesadilla, adding more butter as needed.

Step 9

Transfer the cooked quesadillas to a cutting board and let them rest for 1 minute before slicing into quarters or eighths.

Step 10

Serve immediately and enjoy the balance of creamy, sweet, and spicy flavors!
