Polish Sausage Corn Chip Quesadillas

Directions

Ingredients :

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 link kielbasa (Polish) sausage

cut into 1/2 inch pieces

1 clove garlic

minced

1 ½ tablespoons salsa

1 tablespoon chili powder

1 teaspoon ground black pepper

1 teaspoon garlic salt

1 pinch cumin

1 ½ cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese

2 (8 inch) flour tortillas

½ cup slightly crushed tortilla chips

1 tablespoon softened butter

Methods :

Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the sausage in the hot oil until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, salsa, chili powder, pepper, garlic salt, and cumin; cook and stir until the garlic has mellowed, about 4 minutes. Place a tortilla onto a microwave-safe plate and top with the sausage mixture. Sprinkle with the shredded Monterey Jack cheese.

Cook the tortilla in the microwave on High until the cheese melts, 45 seconds to 1 minute, depending on the microwave. Sprinkle the tortilla chips on top of the melted cheese and top with the remaining tortilla. Butter both sides of the quesadilla and place in a clean skillet over medium heat. Cook until golden brown; flip and continue cooking until golden brown on the other side, about 4 minutes per side.
