Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large skillet over medium-high until shimmering, about 1 minute.

  2. Step 2

    Warm each tortilla in the skillet 15 seconds per side until pliable, then fill with cheddar and fold.

  3. Step 3

    Sear filled tortillas seam-side down until golden and crispy, about 2 minutes per side.
