Green Chile Cheese Crisp
Ingredients:
– 4 large green chiles, roasted, peeled, and chopped
– 2 cups shredded Mexican blend cheese
– 1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
– 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
– 8 small flour tortillas
– 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Cooking spray
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the shredded Mexican blend cheese, Parmesan cheese, chopped green chiles, cilantro, garlic powder, and chili powder. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly distributed.
3. Place the flour tortillas on the prepared baking sheet. Make sure they are in a single layer and not overlapping.
4. Evenly distribute the cheese and green chile mixture onto each tortilla. Spread it out to cover the entire surface, ensuring a generous amount on each.
5. Season the crisps with salt and pepper to taste.
6. Lightly spray the tops of the tortillas with cooking spray. This will help them crisp up in the oven.
7. Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the edges of the tortillas are golden brown and crispy.
8. Keep an eye on the crisps while they’re in the oven to prevent burning.
9. Once done, remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the Green Chile Cheese Crisps cool slightly.
10. Using a sharp knife or a pizza cutter, slice each tortilla into wedges or squares. Serve warm and enjoy!
