Description
These quesadillas turn classic Reuben flavors into a quick, crispy sandwich-meets-taco, featuring melted Swiss cheese, corned beef, and tangy sauerkraut.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 1 cup corned beef, sliced or shredded
- 1 cup Swiss cheese, shredded
- 1/2 cup sauerkraut, drained and pressed
- 1/4 cup Russian or Thousand Island dressing
- Butter or oil for frying
Instructions
- Heat a skillet over medium heat. Drain and press the sauerkraut to remove excess liquid. Slice or shred corned beef and shred Swiss cheese if not pre-shredded.
- Spread Russian or Thousand Island dressing on one side of each tortilla. Layer corned beef, Swiss cheese, and drained sauerkraut on half of each tortilla.
- Fold tortillas in half over the filling. Add butter or oil to the skillet and place the quesadillas in the hot pan. Cook for about 3–4 minutes on each side until golden brown and cheese has melted.
- Slice each quesadilla into wedges and serve immediately with additional dressing on the side.
Notes
Press the sauerkraut well to remove moisture to avoid soggy tortillas. Cook on medium heat for best results.
