Mango and Brie Quesadilla with Sour Cream and Lime Dipping Sauce image

Provided by Bob Blumer - Host of Surreal Gourmet and Glutton for Punishment

Categories     appetizer

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 (8-inch flour) tortillas (available in all grocery stores but sometimes hidden in the refrigerated or frozen food sections)
1 ripe mango, peeled, and sliced (If unavailable, replace with papaya or pear)
1 serrano chile, or 2 jalapeno chiles, minced
2 scallions, trimmed and diced
1/2 cup lightly packed fresh cilantro leaves, chopped, stems discarded before measuring
8 ounces Brie, sliced into long 1/4-inch slices (Rind removal is optional but I always remove it)
Sour Cream and Lime Dipping Sauce, recipe follows
1/4 cup sour cream or plain yogurt
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
1/4 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Heat a 10-inch nonstick saute pan over medium-high heat. Place 1 tortilla in the dry pan for approximately 1 minute per side, or until it just begins to brown. Remove. Repeat with the second tortilla. (If your tortilla expands like a blowfish, poke it with a fork to release the hot air.)
  • After the second tortilla has browned, leave it in the pan and reduce heat to medium-low. Spread half of the mango evenly over the tortilla, then top with half of the peppers, scallions, cilantro, and Brie strips. Top with the first tortilla. Cover the pan with a lid, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook for 2 minutes.
  • Flip the quesadilla with a spatula, re-cover the pan, and continue cooking for 2 more minutes. (Don't worry if a bit of cheese escapes and begins to sizzle loudly.)
  • Remove the quesadilla from the pan, let sit for 1 minute, then slice into 8 wedges (like a pizza). Serve immediately with the sour cream dipping sauce.
  • Repeat with the remaining ingredients. Serve with Sour Cream and Lime Dipping Sauce.
  • Blend sour cream, lime juice and salt with a fork until the mixture is smooth. Transfer to a small decorative bowl or teacup and refrigerate.

Categories     main-dish

Time 13m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 29

1 cup small diced leftover turkey breast, such as Cider Glazed Turkey, recipe follows
1/2 cup leftover stuffing, such as Sage and Mushroom Stuffing recipe, broken into small pieces, recipe follows
1 cup shredded Cheddar
2 large flour tortillas
1/2 cup sour cream
1/4 cup whole berry cranberry sauce
1 gallon apple cider, divided
1 cup salt
1 bunch fresh thyme, divided
3 sprigs fresh rosemary
1 bunch fresh sage
5 cups ice cubes
6 cups water
1 (13 to 15-pound) frozen turkey, defrosted
2 tablespoons canola oil
1 tablespoon poultry seasoning
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1/4 cup brown sugar
Canola oil, cooking spray
2 (10-ounce) packages white button mushrooms
3 tablespoons canola oil
1 medium onion, diced
3 stalks celery, diced
1 tablespoon chopped fresh sage leaves
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme leaves
2 eggs, beaten
2 (14.5-ounce) cans chicken broth
1 loaf day old French bread, diced into 1/2-inch cubes
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Heat a large skillet over medium heat.
  • Put 1 flour tortilla into the pan. Cover with half of the cheese, then a layer of turkey, a layer of stuffing. Top with the remaining cheese and cover with another tortilla. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes and flip. To flip, put a large plate on top of the quesadilla in the pan. Put your palm on the plate and flip the pan upside down. Put the pan back on the stove and slide the quesadilla back into the pan. Cook until the cheese is melted, another 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Stir together the sour cream and cranberry sauce in a small serving bowl.
  • Cut the quesadilla into 8 wedges, transfer to a serving platter and serve with cranberry sour cream.
  • Brine:
  • In a large pot with a lid that is big enough to fit the turkey, add all but 2 cups apple cider and bring to a boil over medium heat. Add the salt, 3 sprigs of thyme, 3 sprigs rosemary and stir to dissolve the salt. Remove from the heat, add 5 cups of ice, 6 cups water and stir. Put the turkey in the pot with the brine and hold it down so that the cavity fills with the brine. If the turkey is not completely submerged in the brine, add another 2 to 3 cups of water to the pot until covered. Cover the pot with a lid and refrigerate overnight or up to 24 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Remove the turkey from the brine, rinse and pat dry. Arrange it, breast side up, in a roasting pan. Stuff the remaining thyme and the bunch of sage into the cavity and tuck the wings back underneath the bottom of the breast. Tie the legs together with a piece of butcher's twine.
  • In a small bowl combine the canola oil, poultry seasoning and pepper. Brush the turkey liberally until completely coated. Put in the oven and roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the thigh registers 165 degrees F, about 2 1/2 to 3 hours. About 30 minutes before the turkey is done, liberally baste the bird with the cider glaze. Baste with the remaining glaze 2 more times at 10 minute intervals. Remove from the oven and let rest at least 15 minutes before carving. Transfer to a serving platter and serve.
  • Glaze:
  • In a small saucepan combine the reserved 2 cups of apple cider and 1/4 cup of brown sugar. Simmer until reduced to about 1/2 cup.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 9 by 13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
  • Remove the mushroom caps from the stems. Reserve the caps for the online round 2 recipe Stuffed Mushrooms. Roughly chop the stems and set aside.
  • In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the canola oil. Stir in the onions and celery and cook until softened slightly, about 2 minutes. Add the mushroom stems and herbs and continue to cook until the mushrooms are browned and the vegetables are slightly tender, about 5 minutes.
  • Whisk together the eggs and chicken broth in a large bowl. Add the cubed bread and toss to coat all of the bread. Stir in the cooked onions and mushroom mixture and toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Transfer to the baking dish and bake, covered loosely with foil, for 40 to 50 minutes. Remove the foil for the last 10 minutes of cooking time to brown the top. Remove from the oven and serve.
  • Use the leftovers from this recipe to make quesadillas and stuffed mushrooms.
