Chipotle Chicken Quesadillas

Today I have a recipe! And No, its probably not the absolute most healthiest recipe of all times, but its yummy and easy. So here we are, Chipotle Chicken Quesadillas. I have found that most Quesadillas can be bland. But this one is delicious! Seriously, give it a go! 


Ingredients
  • FOR THE QUESADILLAS:
  • 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil
  • Cilantro Chopped
  • 1 whole Onion, Sliced
  • 2 whole Banana Peppers Sliced
  • 1/2 Red Pepper Sliced 
  • 1/2 Yellow Pepper  Sliced
  • 2 whole Chicken Breast
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons Cayenne Pepper
  • 2 teaspoons Paprika
  • 1 teaspoons salt 
  • 1 teaspoon pepper
  •  desired amount of Monterey Jack Cheese
  • 4 whole Flour Tortillas
  • FOR THE CHIPOTLE SAUCE:
  • 1/2 c. Cream Cheese 
  • 1 tablespoon spicy ranch 
  • 1 tablespoon chipotle pepper sauce 

Preparation

In a large frying pan, heat olive oil until warm. Add onions and peppers and cook until onions are translucent, about 5 minutes. Remove and set aside.
Slice chicken breast into strips. Sprinkle with cayenne pepper, paprika, salt, and pepper, coating both sides evenly.

In the same frying pan you used to saute the onions and peppers, now add chicken and cook until done, about 5 minutes depending on the size of your strips. Remove from heat and chop into smaller pieces.

Assemble quesadillas by combining cheese, chicken, and peppers/onions into each tortilla. Sprinkle with Cilantro. Cook until the cheese melts, about 3 minutes on each side.
For the chipotle sauce, combine cream cheese, spicy ranch, and chipotle pepper sauce
Serve sauce on top of or on the side of quesadillas.
