¼ cup salsa

Wskazówki

Preheat a large skillet over medium high heat.

Cut the chicken into small cubes and put in a medium mixing bowl. Add the taco seasoning to the chicken and mix until all the chicken is coated with taco seasoning.

Spread 1 Tablespoon of the olive oil onto the skillet. Place the chicken in the skillet in an even layer. Sauté the chicken for 3-4 minutes per side until it's browned slightly, not cooked through.

Then top the chicken with salsa and toss the chicken to thoroughly coat the chicken with the salsa. Continue to cook the chicken until it's cooked through (internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit) for approximately 3-4 more minutes.

Remove the chicken from the skillet and put on a plate. Reduce the temperature to medium low.

To make the quesadillas, lay a tortilla flat on a cutting board. Spread some cheese on half the tortilla, then put some of the chicken on top of the cheese, then top off with more cheese. Fold the tortilla in half to make a half moon shape.

Once all the quesadillas are put together, Put the remaining 1 Tablespoon of olive oil in the skillet and add 2 of the tortillas to the skillet.

Cook until one side of the tortilla is golden brown (2-3 minutes). Flip and then cook until the other side is golden brown as well (2-3 minutes). Watch them closely as they brown quickly.

Remove the quesadillas onto a cutting board. Slice them and serve immediately
