Chorizo & Goat Cheese Quesadillas - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    4 whole wheat tortillas, medium in size
    6 ounces goat cheese, room temperature
    12 ounces chorizo sausage, removed from casings
    2 tablespoons olive oil, cold-pressed
Preparation
    Brown and break up chorizo in skillet on medium heat. Drain, set aside, and wipe out skillet for the quesadillas.
    Use 1/2 tablespoon of oil for each quesadilla.
    Heat 1/2 tablespoon of oil in skillet to medium or medium-high, depending on your burner. When the oil is glistening, it's ready. Don't wait until it smokes.
    Place a tortilla in the oil. Spread half with softened goat cheese and sprinkle chorizo to your liking and fold in half.
    Let brown for a minute or so, peeking often so as to not burn it.
    Carefully flip it over and brown the other side.
    Repeat with the other 3 tortillas and the rest of the cheese and sausage.
    Salud!
