These quesadillas are perfect for dinnertime, lunchtime - even party time! And easy to make. I got this recipe from Crisco. Ingredients:
1 cup cooked chicken, finely shredded |
1/2 cup salsa, plus additional for serving |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper |
2 tablespoons mayonnaise |
2 teaspoons chili powder |
8 (8 inch) flour tortillas |
1 1/2 cups jalapeno jack cheese or 1 1/2 cups monterey jack cheese, shredded |
8 sprigs fresh cilantro, minced |
top with salsa, and |
sour cream, if desired |
Directions:
1. Heat oven to 450°F Line 2 baking sheets with heavy-duty aluminum foil. Spray with CRISCO® No-Stick Cooking Spray.
2. In a medium mixing bowl, combine chicken, salsa, salt, pepper, mayonnaise, chili powder and minced cilantro.
3. Arrange 4 tortillas on baking sheet. Top with chicken mixture. Top with remaining 4 tortillas; press closed gently.
4. Bake 5 minutes. Remove baking sheets from oven. Carefully turn quesadillas with spatula.
5. Return to oven; bake 5 minutes more, or until browned. Let stand 2 minutes. Cut each in quarters.
6. Serve immediately, with additional salsa and sour cream if desired.
