Air Fryer Cheese & Chorizo Quesadillas
Throw together a delicious combination of cheese, chorizo, tomatoes, chili, and spring onions to create these crispy, flavor-packed quesadillas in an air fryer. Quick and easy to prepare, they make an irresistible meal the whole family will love.
Ingredients
- 8 large flour tortillas
- 250 g cheddar cheese grated
- 150 g chorizo finely chopped
- 2 medium tomatoes finely diced
- 6 –8 spring onions thinly sliced
- 1 red chili finely chopped (deseeded for a milder taste)
- ½ small bunch of parsley finely chopped
- 1 lime juiced
- Lime wedges for serving
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 180°C. In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated cheddar, chopped chorizo, diced tomatoes, sliced spring onions, red chili, and parsley. Drizzle with lime juice and mix until evenly incorporated.
- Lay out the flour tortillas and distribute the filling evenly over one side of each. Fold the tortillas in half, pressing gently to secure the filling, ensuring it reaches close to the edges without spilling out.
- Arrange the quesadillas in a single layer inside the air fryer basket, allowing slight overlap if necessary. Place a heatproof utensil on top to prevent them from opening during cooking. Air fry for approximately 10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crisp.
- Remove from the air fryer and serve immediately with fresh lime wedges on the side. Enjoy warm for the best texture and flavor.
