Chicken Quesadillas


An easy weeknight meal that's wholesome and delicious.  This is a versatile dish.  Add your favorite veggies, swap out chicken for steak, or leave out the meat to make it a veggie quesadilla. 

Here's what you'll need...
  Chicken, peppers, garlic, taco seasoning, sour cream, montery jack cheese,
EVOO, flour tortillas, and butter (not pictured)

Dice up chicken and coat with taco seasoning...
 
Heat up olive oil over medium heat...
 
Meanwhile, slice the peppers... 
 
Add chicken to the skillet and allow to cook for 2-3 minutes...
 

Turn chicken, add a few pats of butter, and cook an
additional 5-7 minutes. Transfer chicken to a plate...
 
 Add peppers to pan with 1 TBSP of minced garlic...
 
While the peppers are cooking, shred the cheese...

Once peppers are tender, remove from pan...
 
Using the same skillet, arrange the quesadillas...
Add a pat of butter to the pan, place a tortilla shell in the pan, top with cheese, chicken, peppers, and more chicken...
 
 
 
 Top with another tortilla shell, cook for about 3 minutes and flip, and cook another 2 minutes. 

 
Transfer to a cutting board, slice, and enjoy!  Top with your choice of sour cream, salsa, and/or guacamole...
 
 
Enjoy!!!
