Forevermamas Spicy Chicken Quesadillas Or Burritos Recipes

FIRE-GRILLED CHICKEN QUESADILLA

Steps:

• For the quesadilla: Prepare a grill for medium-high heat.
• Sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper. Grill until cooked through, 12 to 15 minutes, depending on size. Let cool and then shred the chicken into a bowl.
• Heat the grapeseed oil in a saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the onions and peppers, and cook until caramelized, 8 minutes. Add to the shredded chicken and season with salt and pepper.
• Lay out the tortillas on a work surface. To one, add the Monterey Jack, followed by the chicken mixture. Top with the Cheddar and cover with the second tortilla.
• For the salsa: In a bowl, mix together the onions, tomatoes, lime juice and cilantro. Season with salt and pepper.
• Heat up the butter in a skillet. Add the pre-made quesadilla and pan-fry until golden. Flip and cook on the reverse side until golden and the cheese is melted. Remove from the pan, cut into 4 wedges and garnish with salsa and sour cream.

FOREVERMAMA'S SPICY CHICKEN QUESADILLAS OR BURRITOS

Steps:

• Combine chicken and taco seasoning mix in a heavy duty zip-top bag; toss to coat. Refrigerate for 1 - 2 hours or overnight.
• Place chicken in a broiler pan or in a 15 x 10 x 11 inch jellyroll pan.
• Broil coated chicken 6 inches from heat (with electric oven door partially open) for 5 - 6 minutes. Remove from oven and cool.
• Cut chicken into bite-size pieces.
• In a bowl, combine chicken, cheese, picante sauce, and red peppers; stirring well. Set aside.
• Brush 1 side of each tortilla with melted butter; place 2 tortillas, buttered side down, on a cookie sheet. Top each tortilla with about 1 cup of chicken mixture, spreading to edges of tortilla. Top each with a tortilla, buttered side up.
• Bake at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 10 minutes or until golden brown. Cut into wedges. Repeat with remaining tortillas and chicken mixture. Serve immediately.
• NOTE: If making these into burritos, mound chicken mixture 1/4 of the was down on tortilla's. Turn over short side of tortilla over chicken. Turn both right and left sides of tortilla about 1 inch inches Roll up cigar style, enveloping the chicken mixture tightly. Place on greased cookie sheet, seam-side down. Brush each burrito with melted butter. Bake until golden brown.
• Note # 2:If you can find Chi-Chi's taco seasoning mix, these will be To Die For. But unfortunately I can't find this seasoning anymore. They used to advertise right on the package that it didn't contain the "red stuff". I use other taco seasoning mixes, but none compare to the goodness that Chi-Chi's had. If you can find Chi-Chi's somewhere, use 2 pkg's because each pkg. was about 1 /2 - 3/4 ounces. If you do find it, let me know, because I'd love to know because I've been searching for a long time.

FOREVERMAMA'S HAWAIIAN CHICKEN WINGS

Steps:

• Cut chicken wings into 3 sections; discard wing tips. In a large plastic bag or shallow bowl, combine flour and salt. Add wings in small batches; toss to coat. (Place floured wings in refrigerator; this helps flour to adhere to chicken.) In an electric skillet or deep fat fryer, heat oil to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Fry wings, a few at a time, until juices run clear, about 8 - 10 minutes. Drain on paper towels. In a bowl, combine sugar, soy sauce, garlic scallions and jalepeno (optional). Dip fried wings in sauce. Serve immediately.
• NOTE: I normally double the sauce cause it's great and adds more flavor. For a crispy result and for a great end product, the temperature of the oil and fry time is essential. Therefore if you find that your wings aren't crispy enough when cooked for the 8 - 10 minutes, fry them up a little longer until they are crispy!

SPICY CHICKEN AND EGG BREAKFAST QUESADILLAS

Steps:

• Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a skillet over medium heat; stir in onion. Cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
• Add chicken, chicken stock, and taco seasoning; bring to a simmer. Cook until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and drain, being careful to remove as much liquid as possible, while keeping onions and garlic. Transfer chicken mixture to a plate.
• Melt remaining butter in the same skillet over medium heat. Whisk eggs in a small bowl with salt and pepper. Pour into the skillet and add chicken mixture, diced tomatoes and chiles, and cilantro; scramble until eggs are set, about 5 minutes. Add an additional beaten egg, if desired. Remove from the heat and add 1/4 cup cheese, stirring until cheese is melted.
• Place 2 tortillas in a separate, large skillet over low heat. Sprinkle part of the remaining cheese on top and let melt. Spoon 1/2 of the chicken-egg mixture onto each tortilla, sprinkle with remaining cheese, and top with remaining tortillas. Flip carefully and cook on the other side for about 1 minute.
• Remove from the skillet and place each tortilla on a plate. Slice, garnish with sour cream, guacamole, and hot sauce, and serve.
