This is the tastiest quick meal you can make flat out; plus it's a great appetizer. Serves a small get-together.
Instructions
1. Turn the oven on to broil.
2. Heat the beans with a pinch of salt and 2 tbsp. water in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir the beans occasionally to prevent sticking.
3. Heat the oil, onion and pepper in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook for several minutes until the onion starts to turn golden.
4. Add the garlic and cook another 2 minutes, stirring. Add the tequila and let it almost completely evaporate.
5. Add the cumin, a pinch of salt and chili powder. Stir the mixture well and remove from heat.
6. Using a spatula, spread a layer of beans evenly on one side of a tortilla. Sprinkle some of the cheese evenly over the beans.
7. Place the tortilla on a cookie sheet. Slide the cookie sheet under the broiler and let it cook until the cheese is completely melted and starting to get slightly golden in spots.
8. Remove the sheet from the oven and immediately slide the tortilla on a cutting board. Top the tortilla with some of the onion and pepper mixture. Fold the empty side of the tortilla over the other side.
9. Cut the tortilla into wedges and sprinkle with some of the cilantro.
