  • For the filling, in a skillet over medium heat, cook the garlic and onion with olive oil, add the Chipotle Tuna Marina Azul®, the tomato, the serrano pepper, and cook for 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and let it cool.
  • For the guajillo dough, blend the guajillo pepper with a little of the soaking liquid until you obtain a paste. In a bowl, knead the corn dough with the guajillo pepper and salt until all the flavor is incorporated into the dough.
  • Form 30-gram balls and using a tortilla press, flatten the balls until you get a tortilla, place the well-drained Mexican-style tuna filling inside and close it.
  • Heat the oil in a deep pot and fry the quesadillas until they are crispy. Remove from the fryer and place on absorbent paper to remove excess grease.
  • Serve with pickled onions, cilantro leaves, and strips of leek. Accompany with lime and salsa.
