Description
Creamy, meaty, juicy, crispy, and crunchy. That is all chicken quesadillas are. If you love cheesy and creamy snacks, chicken quesadillas are all about that. Cheddar and Monterrey jack make a special blend that you cannot find in one kind of cheese. The crisp and fresh taste of green and red pepper together with their distinct aroma is something to behold.
Ingredients
1 lb. of chicken breast, skinned, deboned, and diced
1 pack of fajita seasoning, 1.27 oz.
1 tbs. of vegetable oil
2 pcs. of green bell peppers, chopped
2 pcs. of red peppers, chopped
1 pc. of onion, chopped
10 pcs. of flour tortillas, 10 inch
1 pack of shredded Cheddar cheese, 8 oz.
1 pack of shredded Monterey Jack cheese, 8 oz.
1 tbs. of bacon bits
Instructions
- Preheat the broiler and grease a baking sheet.
- Spread the chicken with fajita seasoning on the baking sheet and cook under the broiler for approximately 5 minutes or when the chicken pieces are no longer pink.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- In a large saucepan, heat oil and toss in the onion, green pepper, red pepper, and chicken. Stir until the onion and peppers are softened.
- On the half portion of each tortilla, place chicken and vegetable mixture.
