The first decision to make is whether you would like large or small quesadillas? We have two sizes of wraps, Gran Luchito Burrito Wraps and Gran Luchito Soft Taco Wraps both of which can be used to make delicious quesadillas.
Next, it’s time to choose your fillings. We love crispy onions and chorizo but leftover roast chicken seasoned with Gran Luchito Chipotle Fajita & Taco Mix. Add grated cheese and toast until the cheese is melted.
Finally, add a burst of heat to your cheesy treat with Gran Luchito Serrano Green Chillies.

GRAN LUCHITO MEXICAN
Queso Oaxaca is the authentic stringy cheese used in Quesadillas in Mexico, but it can be tricky to find here in the UK. We like to use a good melting cheese such as gruyere or cheddar for quesadillas.
Just about anything goes with tortilla and melted cheese! We love putting in chicken or steak, but grilled veg also works well. Try using a thin layer of refried beans to act as glue and keep everything in!
A small amount of butter in the pan will add heaps of extra flavour. We’d recommend using a variety of tasty fillings such as grilled chicken, steak or veg to create interesting textures and flavours. Throw your ingredients into a pan and sauté for a couple minutes to bring the flavours together. Our final tip is to keep cold ingredients for dipping your quesadilla into!
Always cook your quesadillas fresh, and eat when they're still hot, crunchy, and gooey. Otherwise, they'll go soggy and the cheese will harden. A small amount of fat e.g. ½ tsp of fat will help but don’t go overboard or you'll end up with a soggy quesadilla.
A quesadilla is a tortilla primarily filled with cheese and sometimes other ingredients such as chicken, steak or vegetables. It’s then griddled in a pan until toasted and is delicious.
Quesadilla translated means little cheesy thing and we are here for it!
