Instructions
- 1. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over high heat. When the oil shimmers, add the broccoli. Let cook, undisturbed, until the broccoli begins to char on the bottom, but is bright green on top, 4-5 minutes. Add the zucchini and shallots and cook another 3-4 minutes, until the zucchini begins to char. Remove from the heat and stir in the cilantro and/or basil.
- 2. Meanwhile, make the chipotle sesame sauce by stirring together all ingredients in a glass jar.
- 3. Lay the tortillas flat on a clean counter. On top of 2 tortillas, evenly layer the cheeses and broccoli/zucchini, drizzle with chipotle sauce, then place the remaining 2 tortillas on top.
- 4. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. When the oil shimmers, place the quesadillas, one at a time, into the skillet and cook until golden on each side, about 4-5 minutes per side.
