OVEN BAKED CHICKEN QUESADILLAS

Oven Baked Chicken Quesadillas image

This is how to make multiple Quesadillas in one batch, rather than making them one by one on the stove! They are crispy and stuffed with Fajita flavoured chicken, onion, capsicum/bell peppers and of course cheese. Use this technique to make quesadillas with anything you want - just ensure you cool the filling. See recipe VIDEO below the recipe to see how crispy these are!

Ingredients

400 g / 14 oz chicken (, cut into small bite size pieces (thigh, breast or tenderloin))
1 tsp cumin powder
1 tsp garlic powder (or sub with onion powder)
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper ((or adjust to taste))
1 tsp paprika powder
1/2 tsp salt + black pepper
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp olive oil
1/2 small onion (, diced (brown, white, yellow))
1 garlic clove (, minced)
1 red capsicum / bell pepper (, diced)
1 green capsicum / bell pepper (, diced)
4 flour tortillas ((20cm/8"))
Olive oil spray
1 cups grated cheese, or more to taste ((tasty, cheddar, Monterey Jack, Pepper Jack or other melting cheese of choice) (Note 1))

Steps:

Place Chicken ingredients in a bowl and mix to coat chicken.
Heat oil in skillet over high heat. Add onion and garlic, cook for 1 minute. Then add capsicum and cook for 2 minutes until starting to soften. Transfer into bowl.
Return skillet to the stove. Add chicken and cook until browned. Add to same bowl. Set aside until the filling cools (to speed it up, cover and refrigerate, and/or spread out on plate).
Preheat oven to 220C / 430F (standard) or 200C/390F (fan / convection).
Spray baking tray lightly with olive oil. Heat in the oven while you assemble the quesadillas.
Divide the filling between the tortillas, covering half the surface. Top with cheese. Fold in half and press down gently but firmly.
Remove baking tray from oven. Transfer quesadillas onto tray (you should hear a soft sizzle).
Bake for 8 minutes. Then turn the quesadillas (over the folded edge) then press down with the egg flip. Bake for a further 8 minutes or until the surface is crispy.
Remove from oven and serve immediately!

BAKED QUESADILLAS

Baked Quesadillas image

If you don't like frying them, try baking! Quesadillas can be made with whatever filling ingredients you have on hand and can easily be made into a vegetarian meal. (I've merely included what I normally use.) Ingredient amounts are very rough, adjust to suit your taste. You can saute the veggies first if you like, but I personally can't tell a difference in taste, so I leave them raw.

To make the turkey, heat a skillet over medium heat and add in the ground turkey, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon. Season it with the cumin, paprika, chili powder, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Stir well, continuing to break apart the meat into small crumbles. Cook until the turkey has browned. You can do this ahead of time. It also freezes great.
