Chicken Quesadillas

I ran across this recipe online and tried it out last night….YUM!!!  I was hesitant on the sauce just by reading the ingredients because a few of the spices I’ve never used.  This was actually really easy and quick to make which I LOVE!!

 

Sauce:

1/4 cup mayo

2 tsp minced jalapenos, slices  ( I actually omitted this)

2 tsp jalapeno juice

3/4 tsp sugar

1/2 tsp cumin

1/2 tsp paprika

1/8 tsp cayenne pepper

1/8 tsp garlic powder

dash salt

 

Quesadillas

4 flour tortillas (I used burrito size)

4 chicken tenderloins

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1 cup shredded monterey jack cheese (I used the colby/monterey blend)

4 slices American cheese

 

Directions

1.  Combine sauce ingredients and stir until smooth.

2.  Grill chicken in vegetable oil and cut into thin slices (I cubed mine before cooking)

3.  Preheat skillet over medium heat (no oil!!  I always have done quesadillas in oil and this does not call for any)

4.  One at a time, lay tortilla into hot skillet and sprinkle with 1/4 cup of each shredded cheese and one cheese slice on one side of tortilla.

5.  Arrange about 1/4 chicken over cheese side of tortilla.

6.  One the empty side, spread about one tablespoon of sauce.

7.  Fold over and press gently with spatula.

8.  Cook until cheese is melted and slice into 4 pieces.

 

Oh so YUMMY!!!!!
