Method

  1. 1

    Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the butter, allowing it to melt completely.

  2. 2

    Place one flour tortilla in the skillet and evenly sprinkle a generous amount of shredded cheese over half of the tortilla.

  3. 3

    Add a handful of corn kernels on top of the cheese, then season with a pinch of salt.

  4. 4

    Fold the tortilla in half to enclose the filling.

  5. 5

    Cook the quesadilla for about 2–3 minutes on the first side, until the cheese begins to melt and the bottom is golden brown.

    Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: The bottom is golden and the cheese begins to melt. Cook until the tortilla releases easily from the pan.

  6. 6

    Flip the quesadilla and cook another 2–3 minutes, until the cheese is fully melted and both sides are golden and crisp.

    Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: Both sides are golden and crisp, with melted cheese. Flip carefully to keep the filling enclosed.

  7. 7

    Transfer the cooked quesadilla to a cutting board and let it rest for 1 minute to allow the cheese to set slightly.

  8. 8

    Cut the quesadilla into wedges and serve immediately. Repeat the process with the remaining tortillas and ingredients.

  9. 9

    Optional: garnish with fresh cilantro, a squeeze of lime, or a dollop of sour cream for extra flavor.
