Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 cup shredded dill havarti cheese Use freshly shredded for better melting.
  • 8-9 slices dill pickles Pat these dry before use.
  • 1 extra-large wheat tortilla Ensure it is room temperature for easy folding.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Pat the dill pickle slices dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
  2. Heat your griddle pan over medium-high heat until hot.
Assembling
  1. Lay the wheat tortilla flat and sprinkle half of the shredded dill havarti cheese over one half.
  2. Arrange the dried pickle slices in a single layer on top of the cheese.
  3. Top with the remaining cheese and fold the tortilla in half, pressing gently.
Cooking
  1. Place the folded quesadilla on the preheated griddle and cook for 4-5 minutes without moving.
  2. Once the bottom is golden, carefully flip and cook the other side for another 4-5 minutes until evenly browned and cheese is melted.
Serving
  1. Transfer the cooked quesadilla to a cutting board and let it rest for a minute.
  2. Cut into quarters and serve immediately while warm.

Notes

Serve with tangy yogurt-dill dip, smoky chipotle mayo, or a refreshing slaw. Garnish with flaky sea salt and cracked black pepper. Store cooled quesadilla in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
