Frozen Dumplings Make For A Distinctive, Flavorful Filling In Quesadillas
BY KAT LIEU
Frozen dumplings can be added to other foods from sandwiches and noodles to fried rice. Using them as a tasty filling in quesadillas is one fusion food you must try.
To make this recipe that's popular on TikTok, thaw a dozen frozen dumplings at room temperature so they’re soft enough to cut with food scissors.
In a lightly greased skillet over medium heat, lay out a flour tortilla and add the cut-up dumplings on one half. Then, sprinkle on the cheese and any other toppings you desire.
Fold the tortilla over and pan-fry both sides of the quesadilla until the tortilla is golden and crispy and the dumpling fillings are cooked thoroughly.
Drizzle some chili crisp over the finished quesadillas, or serve them with your salsa, guacamole, or sour cream to enjoy the crispy fusion of tortillas, cheese, and dumplings.
