Melty cheese, seasoning, and rotisserie chicken make these chicken quesadillas a breeze to make.

Ingredients

  • 4 largeflour tortillas
  • 1 cupshredded cheese (mexican blend or cheddar)
  • 1 ½ teaspoonstaco seasoning
  • 2 cupsrotisserie chicken meat (cubed)
  • toppings: guacamole, sour cream, salsa (optional)

Directions

Prep:

  1. 1

    Chop the rotisserie chicken into small pieces. The smaller the chicken, the more evenly and quickly it will warm up.

  2. 2

    Lay the tortillas flat on a cutting board. Spray the top of each tortilla with cooking spray and flip over.

  3. 3

    Distribute about 2 tablespoons of shredded cheese on half of each tortilla. Sprinkle a little less than 1/2 a teaspoon of taco seasoning over the cheese and then top with 1/2 cup of chopped, cooked rotisserie chicken. On top of the chicken, sprinkle another 2 tablespoons of shredded cheese. Having the cheese on both sides will help seal the quesadilla.

  4. 4

    Fold the tortilla over to form a half-moon. The greased sides should be facing out.

Cook:

  1. 1

    Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, place one or two quesadillas on the hot surface. Cook for 3 minutes on the first side; use a spatula to flatten out the quesadilla, and flip over. Cook for an additional 2 minutes on the other side until the cheese is melted and the chicken has warmed up.

Serve:

  1. 1

    Remove the quesadillas from the pan and slice each quesadilla into 3 pieces. Serve with sour cream, guacamole, and salsa if you want.
