Mexican Pork Quesadillas

Succulent pork fillet, mozzarella cheese and our take on a Pico de gallo; pickled jalapeños, fresh cucumber and zingy tomato. All these beautiful elements are packed inside a soft flour tortilla which is then toasted to perfection, until the cheese melts and the tortilla is golden and crisp!

  1. PORK TIME

    Place a nonstick pan over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the pork strips and the rub and fry for 4-6 minutes or until cooked through, shifting occasionally.

  2. PICO BOO

    To make the Pico de gallo, combine the chopped jalapeños, the diced tomato, the chopped cucumber, the diced onion, and the vinegar. Season to taste and set aside in the fridge.

  3. THAT’S NOT THE QUES

    Return the pan to a high heat. When hot, add 1 tortilla and top with the mozzarella, the pork slices, and some of the Pico de gallo. Then sandwich with the remaining tortilla. Get ready to flip! Cover the pan with a chopping board or a plate. Flip the pan quickly (and with confidence!), so the quesadilla flips onto the board or plate. Slide the quesadilla back into the pan, so the untoasted side is on the base of the pan. Fry for a further 1-2 minutes until the cheese is melted. On completion, cut into quarters.

  4. FEAST-ESTA!

    Serve up the quesadilla triangles with a dollop of sour cream, a spoon of guac, and the picked parsley. Serve any remaining Pico de gallo on the side. Amazing work, Chef!
