Chicken Quesadillas

Submitted by KansasGirl

"These quesadillas are fast and easy. You only need five ingredients. I usually cook mine on my panini maker, but these can easily be cooked on the stove in a pan. This is a very vesatile recipe. You can use beef instead of the chicken if you like. I usually use medium pace salsa. But you can use mild or hot if you like. These are great for lunch or a quick dinner. It is especially fast if you buy a deli roast chicken and use that so there is less clean-up!"

 

• Ready In: 13mins
• Ingredients: 5
• Yields: 4 quesadillas
• Serves: 4

ingredients

• 8 flour tortillas (Soft taco size)
• 2 cups cooked chicken (I usually use deli roast chicken)
• 1 1⁄2 cups colby or 1 1/2 cups monterey jack cheese
• 1 cup pace medium salsa
• 1⁄2 cup sour cream

directions

1. Preheat greased skillet if cooking on the stove.
2. Lay one tortilla on a plate. Then add 1/4 of each of the ingredients. I rarely measure mine out. I just toss some filling ingredients on the tortilla in any order.
3. Lay other tortilla on top. I usually smash mine down a bit if there is a pile in the center.
4. You can cook these in a greased pan on the stove or in something like a sandwich maker. (I have a flat panini maker that cooks on top and bottom that works great.)
5. Cook on med-high heat till one side turns brown.(about 2 minutes).
6. Flip and cook the other side if using the pan method.
7. Cut into triangles and serve. I use a pizza cutter to cut mine and it works great.
