Description

Easy Mini Party Poblano Quesadillas are flavorful, cheesy appetizers perfect for any gathering. These bite-sized delights feature roasted poblano peppers and are simple to make ahead.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 medium poblano peppers
  • 1/2 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 8 ounces shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • 8 ounces shredded cheddar cheese
  • 12 small corn tortillas (about 6 inches in diameter)
  • Optional: Sour cream, salsa, or guacamole for serving

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Roast the poblano peppers: Place the poblano peppers directly over a gas flame or under the broiler, turning occasionally until the skin is blackened and blistered on all sides. Place the peppers in a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let them steam for 10-15 minutes. Peel off the blackened skin, remove the stems and seeds, and finely chop the poblano flesh.
  3. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic, cumin, and chili powder, and cook for 1 minute more until fragrant.
  4. Stir in the chopped roasted poblano peppers. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat and let the mixture cool slightly.
  5. In a bowl, combine the shredded Monterey Jack and cheddar cheeses with the poblano mixture.
  6. Warm the corn tortillas slightly in a dry skillet or microwave to make them pliable.
  7. Spoon about 2-3 tablespoons of the cheese and poblano filling onto one half of each tortilla. Fold the other half over to create a half-moon shape.
  8. Heat a lightly oiled skillet or griddle over medium heat. Cook the mini quesadillas for 2-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and the cheese is melted and gooey. Work in batches if necessary.
  9. Alternatively, place the assembled mini quesadillas on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until golden and the cheese is melted.
  10. Cut each quesadilla into wedges or serve whole. Serve your mini party poblano quesadillas warm with your favorite toppings.

Notes

  • For spicier mini poblano quesadillas, leave some of the seeds in the poblano peppers.
  • These mini poblano quesadillas can be assembled ahead of time and cooked just before serving.
  • Ensure your tortillas are fresh and pliable to prevent cracking when folding.
