Crispy Baked Chicken Quesadillas Recipes

CRISPY BAKED CHICKEN QUESADILLAS

Steps:

• PREP: Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 425ºF. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper (or foil, sprayed with cooking spray) and set aside.
• SAUTE: Heat the oil in a skillet over medium-high heat until it's super hot. Add the peppers and onions and cook for roughly 1-2 minutes or until the peppers start to smell fragrant and soften a little. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Remove from heat and set aside.
• QUESADILLAS: In a bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, chipotle pepper(s), adobo sauce, adobo seasoning, ground cumin, and garlic powder until a smooth paste form. Stir in the chicken and shredded cheese and continue to stir until thoroughly combined. On a clean work surface, lay out a tortilla. Spoon 1/4 cup of the chicken mixture on one half of the tortilla, followed by a thin layer of peppers and onions (on the same side). Then fold the other side of the tortilla over the filling (so it looks like a flat taco.)
• BAKE: Place the prepared quesadillas on the baking tray in a single layer and brush with oil (or spray with cooking spray.) Bake for 12-14 minutes (flipping about 1/2 way through) until golden brown and crispy. Serve with homemade guacamole salsa, blender salsa, pico de gallo, or salsa verde.
