Kimchi Quesadillas with Swiss Cheese and Avocado

Kimchi Quesadillas with Swiss Cheese and Avocado Instructions:

1. Place a skillet over medium heat, and when hot, add half of the butter.
2. When melted, add the kimchi and cook, stirring often, until kimchi is tender and begins to caramelize, about 4-6 minutes. Turn off the heat and transfer the kimchi to a small bowl and set aside.
3. Place one of the tortillas on a plate or cutting board. Scatter the cheese evenly over the tortilla in one even layer, then sprinkle the arugula over the cheese. Slice the avocado half into very thin slices and arrange in a single layer over the arugula and cheese, covering the entire surface of the quesadilla.
4. Sprinkle the avocado with salt to taste, then top with the cilantro and sesame seeds. Place the second tortilla over the top to complete the assembly.
5. Place the skillet used for the kimchi over medium heat, and when hot, add the remaining salted butter. When melted, place the quesadilla in the pan and cook until the underside is golden, about 2-3 minutes.
6. Carefully flip the quesadilla and cook until the second side is golden and the cheese inside has melted, about 1-2 minutes.
7. Transfer to a heatproof cutting board or serving plate and cut into quarters. Garnish with additional chopped cilantro and sesame seeds.
8. Serve with Lime Crema on the side for dipping and enjoy!
