Steps:
- In a large sauté pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook 1 minute more. Stir in the chipotle peppers and tomatoes. Cook until most of the liquid from the tomatoes has evaporated and the mixture is thickened, stirring often, about 20 minutes. Stir in the scallions, honey, chicken, salt and cilantro. Keep warm.
- Heat a sauté pan over medium heat and spray lightly with nonstick cooking spray. Lay a tortilla in the pan and heat until hot to the touch but not crisp (air pockets may form). Flip the tortilla over, then sprinkle ⅔ cup of the cheese evenly overtop, being careful to keep it off the pan. Spread a generous ½ cup of the chicken mixture over half of the tortilla. When the cheese is mostly melted, fold the tortilla over to cover the filling and form a half-moon shape. Cook until the tortilla is crisp and golden and the cheese is melted, adjusting the heat as necessary, a few minutes per side. Repeat with the remaining tortillas. Let the quesadillas rest a few minutes to allow the filling to set, then cut into wedges. Serve with sour cream and lime wedges, if desired.
- Note: If you have a large griddle, use that to make the quesadillas so you can make a few at a time. Also, be sure to serve your quesadillas hot of the pan (or off the griddle), otherwise, they'll get soggy and the cheese will harden. If this does happen, you can pop them in a 350 F degree oven to heat them up, but they won't be as crisp and gooey as they are fresh. The chicken mixture can be made up to 2 days ahead, cooled, covered, and refrigerated.
- Note: The nutritional information does not include the optional ingredients.
- Freezer-Friendly Instructions: The cooked quesadillas can be frozen for up to 3 months. After defrosting in the refrigerator, reheat them, wrapped in foil, in a 325°F oven until hot, 20 - 30 minutes.

Steps:
- Lay 6 tortillas on the work surface, and divide the cheese, jalapenos and chicken among the tortillas. (It's best to leave about an inch border on the edge of the tortilla uncovered to allow for the spread of the melting cheese.) Top with remaining tortillas and press gently to seal. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a small skillet. Carefully place a quesadilla in the skillet and fry, turning once, until golden and little bubbles appear on both sides, 4 to 5 minutes in all. Repeat with the remaining quesadillas, wiping out the pan between batches if the butter burns.
- While the quesadillas cook, make the salsa: Halve the tomatoes and grate them on the largest holes of a box grater into a bowl, discarding the skins. Grate the onion into the tomato and stir in the cilantro, hot sauce and salt, to taste.
- Cut quesadillas into 4 wedges with a pizza wheel or knife and serve with the salsa and avocado.

Steps:
- Combine the peanut oil, ginger, garlic, cilantro, green onion, and red pepper. Add the chicken and marinate in the refrigerator overnight. Remove the chicken from the marinade and season with salt and pepper.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Heat a large ovenproof saute pan over medium-high heat. When the pan is hot, add enough peanut oil to coat the bottom of the pan. Add the chicken and sear on both sides. Place the pan in the oven and roast until cooked through, about 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from the oven, cool slightly, and dice into 1/2-inch pieces.
- Preheat a grill or grill pan. Drizzle the onion slices with oil and place on the grill. Cook until the onions are soft, about 4 minutes per side. Remove from the grill.
- Place the chicken into a bowl and add barbecue sauce, to taste. Place 4 tortillas on a flat surface. In a separate bowl, mix the fontina and mozzarella cheese. Place some of the cheese mixture on each tortilla. Top with some of the chicken and grilled onions. Top each with another tortilla.
- Heat a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of the butter and cook until it is foamy. Add 1 quesadilla and cook until golden brown on both sides, about 3 minutes per side. Repeat with the remaining quesadillas, adding more butter as necessary.
- Cut each quesadilla into 6 pieces. Top with Mexican Cream and Tomato Salsa.
- Combine all of the ingredients. Refrigerate until needed.
- Over a hot grill, roast the tomatoes until blackened. Transfer to a bowl and add the chipotles. Cover and allow to cool for 15 minutes. Add the basil, garlic and lime juice and marinate for 10 minutes. Transfer to a blender or food processor and pulse until chunky. Transfer to a bowl and add the vinegar, sugar, salt and pepper. Slowly whisk in 1 cup of olive oil. Reserve.

CHICKEN AND BRIE QUESADILLAS WITH CHIPOTLE SALSA
This is a 1999 runner-up recipe from Southern Living, courtesy of Mary Lou Cook. I did make this, and it is a wonderful, flavorful dish. Instead of serving as an appetizer, I served it for a light lunch for two. You will love that salsa. Prep time includes letting the salsa sit for 1 hour.

- Heat a skillet to medium heat and add the olive oil. Once hot, add the onions and garlic, cook, stirring often until lightly caramelized and sweet, about 5-10 minutes. Stir in the chipotle chilies, diced tomatoes, tomato paste, vinegar and brown sugar. Add 1/4 cup water. Bring the sauce to a boil and then reduce the heat to a simmer. Simmer for 20-30 minutes or until thickened slightly. If desired you can puree the sauce (I did not). Transfer to a glass jar. Can be stored in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
- In a bowl, combine the mangos, avocados, fresno chili, cilantro and lime juice. Toss well. Keep in the fridge until ready to eat.
- Add the chicken to a large bowl or gallon size ziplock bag. Add the chipotle chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, brown sugar (or honey), garlic powder and a pinch of both salt and pepper. Drizzle a little olive oil over the chicken and add the lime juice. Toss well to combine and evenly distribute the seasonings. If possible, allow the chicken to sit in the marinade for 30 minutes or up to overnight (this is normally when I make the relish and salsa).
