Description

These quesadillas put the salsa-boring chicken-cheese quesadillas that you get at so many restaurants to shame, and they are dead simple. The secret is the adobo. Make sure you have plenty of sour cream!

Ingredients

  • 2 whole Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breasts, Pounded Flat
  • ⅓ cups Adobo Sauce (from A Can Of Chipotles In Adobo)
  • ½ cups Monterey Jack With Jalapeno, Shredded
  • ½ cups Fontina Cheese, Shredded
  • 1 whole Jalapeno, Thinly Sliced
  • 4 whole Whole Wheat Flour Tortillas
  • Optional Garnishes: Salsa, Sour Cream, Avocado Slices

Preparation

1. Marinate chicken in the adobo sauce in a plastic bag for an hour. CAUTION: wear gloves when working with the adobo!
2. Cook chicken on a hot grill until cooked through and blackened in spots.
3. Thinly slice chicken. On two tortillas, spread a thin layer of cheese followed by a layer of chicken, a layer of jalapeno, and another layer of cheese. Top with the other two tortillas.
4. Heat a dry, nonstick pan to medium high. Cook quesadillas on both sides until well-browned and heated through (about 4 minutes).
5. Cut quesadillas into wedges and serve with salsa, sour cream, and avocado slices.

Very easy to prep and throw together. The most delicious quesadillas – so very flavorful! Definitely saved as a favorite and added into our regular menu planning.

I made a double batch and froze half. Thaw and reheat in toaster oven (so they don’t get soggy)…great for busy nights or quick snacks.

Thanks for sharing!!
