These skillet quesadillas are quick and delicious. Try a flavored rotisserie chicken or add some toasted pine nuts to kick up the flavor. Marinara or sour cream makes a nice dollop on the plate. Ingredients:
1 (3.5-oz.) jar pesto (we tested with alessi) |
4 (8 ) flour tortillas |
1 1/2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken |
1 (8-oz.) package shredded italian cheese blend |
softened butter or yogurt-based spread (we tested with brummel & brown) |
Directions:
1. Spread about 1 1/2 Tbsp. pesto on each tortilla. Sprinkle a slightly heaping 1/3 cup chicken onto half of each tortilla; sprinkle cheese over chicken on each tortilla. 2. Fold each tortilla in half. Butter both sides of each folded tortilla. 3. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook quesadillas, in 2 batches, 2 minutes on each side or until browned and crusty. Remove to a cutting board, and cut each quesadilla into 3 wedges. |
