   Once hot add the sausage and cook, stirring and breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon, until cooked through and crumbly, about 7 minutes.

3. 3

   Use a slotted spoon to remove the sausage from the pan to a paper-towel-lined sheet tray to drain off some of the grease.

   Fold the tortilla over to close.

6. 6

   Heat a cast-iron double-burner griddle over medium-high heat.

7. 7

   Add the butter and 1 tablespoon oil.

8. 8

   Once the butter is melted and foamy, carefully add the quesadillas to the pan and cook on both sides until golden brown and cheese is fully melted, about 4 minutes per side.

   Serve with sour cream.

    Add the cilantro, tomatoes, garlic, jalapenos, lime juice, onion and some salt and pepper to the bowl of a food processor, and pulse until blended together.
