Ingreidients: | ||
2 tablespoons olive oil | ||
2 pounds skinless chicken breasts | ||
Salt and pepper | ||
2 tablespoons taco or Cajun seasoning mix | ||
1 large onion, cut in half and then into slices | ||
1 green bell pepper, seeded and sliced into strips | ||
1 red bell pepper, seeded and sliced into strips | ||
1 yellow bell pepper | ||
12 tablespoons butter, for frying | ||
12 large flour tortillas | ||
2 1/2 cups grated cheese ( Monterey Jack is the best) | ||
Pico de Gallo, for serving, recipe follows | ||
|
||
Directions | ||
Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a skillet over high heat. Sprinkle the chicken with salt, pepper and taco seasoning. Add the chicken to the skillet and saute over medium-high heat until done, about 4 minute per side. Remove from the skillet and dice into cubes. Set aside. | ||
|
||
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil to the skillet over high heat. Throw in the onions and peppers and cook until the peppers have a few dark brown/black areas, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove and set aside. | ||
|
||
Sizzle 1/2 tablespoon of the butter in a separate skillet or griddle over medium heat and lay a flour tortilla in the skillet. Then build the quesadillas by laying grated cheese on the bottom tortilla, and then arranging the chicken and cooked peppers. Top with a little more grated cheese and top with a second tortilla. | ||
|
||
When the tortilla is golden on the first side, carefully flip the quesadilla to the other side, adding another 1/2 tablespoon butter to the skillet at the same time. Continue cooking until the second side is golden. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and fillings. | ||
|
||
Cut each quesadilla into wedges and serve with Pico de Gallo. | ||
