To prepare the crema, combine the yogurt, lime zest and juice, cilantro, and adobo sauce in a small bowl. Stir well to combine and season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
Preheat a grill pan and spray it with nonstick spray.
Soak the onions in the jalapeno juice for about 10 minutes, then drain.
In a large bowl, mix together the jalapenos, onions, pork, and cheese.
Divide the mixture onto 2 tortilla rounds. Place another tortilla round on top of each and spray with olive oil.
Place the quesadillas face down onto the grill and cook until the cheese is melted and the tortillas begin to brown, about 3 minutes. Flip and cook for an additional 3 minutes.
Remove the quesadillas from the grill pan, cut each into quarters, and serve with the crema.
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
In a small bowl, mix the olive oil, garlic, salt, and pepper. Use a pastry brush to spread the mixture all over the pork shoulder.
Place the pork shoulder on a rack set into a roasting pan.
Roast for 20 minutes, then reduce the heat to 325 degrees F. Continue cooking until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the shoulder reads 185 degrees F, about 4 hours.

Absolutely! The Funked Out Pork Quesadilla can easily be customized to your preferences. Swap out the pork for tender, grilled chicken and enjoy a whole new flavor experience.
The key to a crispy tortilla is heating it in a hot, dry skillet before adding the filling. This creates a nice, golden crust that adds texture to your quesadilla.
Definitely! Simply omit the meat and load up your quesadilla with your favorite vegetables and cheese. You'll still get to enjoy the burst of flavors without the pork.
Yes! There are plenty of gluten-free tortilla options available in most grocery stores. Look for corn or gluten-free flour tortillas to make this recipe suitable for those with gluten sensitivities.
To achieve melt-in-your-mouth tender pork, consider marinating it overnight in a mixture of citrus juice, spices, and olive oil. This will help break down the muscle fibers and infuse the meat with flavor.
Absolutely! The pork filling can be made a day in advance and stored in the refrigerator until you're ready to assemble and cook your quesadillas. This makes meal prep a breeze!
While you can use any type of cheese you prefer, we recommend using a melty cheese like cheddar, Monterey Jack, or queso fresco. These cheeses complement the other flavors in the quesadilla and provide a gooey, delicious filling.
While it's best enjoyed fresh, you can freeze the assembled quesadillas for later. Wrap them tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil and store them in an airtight container in the freezer. When you're ready to enjoy, simply thaw and cook as usual.
