Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 breasts chicken breast
2 tablespoons taco seasoning
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 onion, sliced
4 cloves garlic cloves, sliced
3 bell peppers, sliced
1 lime, juiced
8 tortillas
2 tablespoons butter
2 cups shredded cheese, mexican blend

Steps:

  • Slice the chicken breasts into strips, about an inch apart, and coat with taco seasoning. In a large skillet, heat 1 Tbsp. vegetable oil and cook chicken until no longer pink and slightly charred. Remove cooked chicken from the skillet.
  • Heat another Tbsp. oil, add onion and garlic and cook for a couple minutes until it's slightly translucent. Add the peppers, and cook slightly, then mix in the cooked chicken. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • In a clean pan, melt a bit of butter. Add a tortilla and move it around until it's buttery. Add cheese, then fajita mixture, then more cheese, then top with another tortilla and pat it down.
  • Flip the quesadilla over and cook the other side until it's golden. Remove from pan and cut into quarters. Repeat these steps with the remaining tortillas.
  • Enjoy!
