Fast-off-the-Grill Chorizo Quesadillas

Directions:

1. Heat a medium skillet over medium-high heat.
2. Use a spatula to crumble the chorizo as you place it in the pan.
3. Sauté the chorizo until browned and cooked through, about 5 minutes.
4. Using a slotted spoon, remove the chorizo from the skillet to a plate.
5. Arrange 5 tortillas on a work surface.
6. Spread about 1/4 cup refried beans evenly over half of each tortilla, leaving a 1/2-inch border.
7. Scatter about 1/3 cup cooked chorizo over beans.
8. Scatter a generous 1/3 cup of cheese over top.
9. Divide and arrange cilantro over top of cheese.
10. Fold opposite half of tortilla over the filling. (The quesadillas can be assembled up to 1 hour before serving. Cover loosely with plastic wrap so they don't dry out, and set aside at room temperature.)
11. Preheat grill to medium-high.
12. Brush outsides of tortillas with a small amount of oil.
13. Using a wide spatula, transfer quesadillas to the grill.
14. Grill on one side for about one minute, slide and turn quesadillas 90 degrees, grilling until nice cross-hatch grill marks appear.
15. Slide spatula underneath to flip quesadillas and grill the second side.
16. Transfer the quesadillas to a cutting board.
17. Use a sharp knife or pizza cutter to cut the quesadillas into 5 wedges.
18. Arrange on a platter and serve immediately, accompanied with the tomatillo salsa.
