Ingredients
 

  • 3 tilapia fillets
  • juice of 1 lime
  • ¼ teaspoon paprika
  • ½ teaspoon ground cumin
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • ¼ teaspoon chili powder
  • Salt and pepper
  • 2 tablespoon flour
  • 8 flour tortillas
  • 1 cup shredded pepper jack cheese
  • 1 cup shredded Monterey jack cheese
  • Vegetable oil
  • ¼ cup fresh cilantro
  • Guacamole for serving

Instructions
 

  • Spread out the tortillas evenly on a work surface. Divide the cheese and fish evenly, sprinkling the bottom half of each tortilla evenly with the cheese and fish, then with the fresh cilantro.
  • Fold the tortilla in half to enclose the filling and press firmly. Stack the quesadillas on a plate and set aside.
  • Brush the pan with oil. Place 2 quesadillas in the pan and cook until the undersides are lightly toasted, about 2 minutes.
  • Flip the quesadillas and toast the other sides, about 2 minutes more.
  • Transfer to a baking sheet and keep warm in the oven. Repeat with the remaining quesadillas, brushing the pan with oil between batches.
  • Cut each quesadilla into wedges and serve immediately with guacamole.
