CHICKEN QUESADILLAS



Chicken Quesadillas image

This is a great recipe for parties. I freeze the leftovers; they reheat quite well. The zesty chicken and cooked peppers are a succulent delight when mixed with the melted cheeses. Cut the quesadillas into wedges and serve with sour cream and salsa.

CHICKEN & BROCCOLI QUESADILLA



Chicken & Broccoli Quesadilla image

When I made this, I needed something healthy that would also satisfy my taste buds. The flavor of garlic dispersed through the healthy taste of soft broccoli and meaty chicken is more than satisfying to the mouth without causing the urge to workout after eating.

Number Of Ingredients 10

8 medium whole wheat tortillas
1 cup(s) monterey jack cheese
1 cup(s) sharp cheddar cheese
1/2 pound(s) chicken breast
3/4 pound(s) broccoli, fresh
4 clove(s) garlic
2-3 tablespoon(s) mrs. dash original
4 tablespoon(s) olive oil, extra virgin
any dash(es) sea salt
any dash(es) black pepper

Steps:

  • Rinse and separate broccoli into extra small pieces. Peel and mince garlic.
  • Season chicken with sea salt, pepper, and Mrs. Dash Original. Cook chicken with 1 tbsp of the olive oil on medium heat. Cook until browned on each side.
  • Remove chicken and cut/shred into flat pieces. It's okay if it's not fully cooked in the center. Cooked or not, put chicken back into the pan.
  • Add remaining 3 tbsp of olive oil, the broccoli pieces, and minced garlic. Stir to evenly distribute the olive oil throughout the broccoli and chicken. Season with sea salt, pepper, and Mrs. Dash Original (if desired). Cook for several minutes, until broccoli is soft.
  • Remove chicken and broccoli mixture, and set aside. Place tortilla on pan and immediately put on cheddar cheese (about 1/4 c). Sprinkle 1/4 of the broccoli and chicken mixture on top of cheddar, then add about 1/4 c of the Monterey Jack cheese. Place tortilla on top and flip. Cook for a minute or two, or until slightly crunchy. Repeat this step 3 more times. Enjoy!

BROCCOLI QUESADILLAS



Broccoli Quesadillas image

Got this from Delicious Living website. So easy and quick. Here's what the recipe says: "The next time you cook broccoli for dinner, add a little extra so you can make these the next day for lunch or an after-school snack (or even a light supper). You might need to make one at a time, depending on the size of your pan. If desired, keep finished ones warm in the oven until all are cooked." I use cheddar cheese, since I have it on hand. Cook time DOES NOT include cooking the broccoli.
