Turkey Quesadilla Recipe

Florida’s abundant wild turkey populations can provide the ultimate locally-sourced, organic meal when knowledge, skill and good fortune come together for a successful hunt. Fresh From Florida chefs have developed several mouth-watering wild turkey recipes and ways to serve leftovers using a variety of Fresh from Florida products.

Ingredients:
2 cups cooked Florida wild turkey meat, diced or shredded
1 sweet onion, thinly sliced
6 strips bacon, cooked and crumbled
1 cup Monterey jack cheese (or your favorite), grated
8 small flour tortillas
2 tablespoons butter
Sea salt and fresh ground pepper, to taste


Preparation:

Shred or dice the turkey meat and set aside. Preheat a large buttered sauté pan to medium heat. Cook onions for 10 minutes or until caramelized. Remove and set aside. Using the same pan add one tablespoon of butter. Build the quesadilla by layering in the following order: flour tortilla, grated cheese, caramelized onions, bacon, turkey, more cheese then cover with another tortilla. Brown on both sides until cheese is melted. Serve warm with sour cream and guacamole.
