Malzemeler

1 ½ cups chicken tikka masala in sauce (1 cup chicken, ½ cup sauce)

4 large flour tortillas (10-inch or 12-inch)

2 cups shredded cheese (divided, Mexican blend preferred)

chicken tikka masala sauce (optional, for dipping)

Yöntemler

Separate chunks of chicken from tikka masala sauce. Roughly chop chicken and set aside. Spread approximately half (¼ cup or so) of tikka masala sauce on one side of one tortilla.

Heat large skillet over medium heat. Add ½ tablespoon butter to skillet and melt completely. Once butter is melted, place tortilla with sauce in skillet, sauce-side up.

Spread approximately ½ cup chopped chicken across top of tortilla, then cover with 1 cup shredded cheese. Place second tortilla on top, covering chicken and cheese completely.

Let quesadilla cook approximately 3 minutes, until cheese has melted to top tortilla. Carefully remove quesadilla from skillet with spatula or slide quesadilla out of skillet onto plate (see Notes).

Melt another ½ tablespoon butter in skillet. Once melted, flip quesadilla over and return to skillet to brown other side.

Cook 2 to 3 minutes, then transfer fully cooked quesadilla to plate. Repeat process with remaining 2 tortillas, to create second quesadilla.

Once both quesadillas are prepared, cut each quesadilla into quarters and serve with additional tikka masala sauce, chutney, and chopped cilantro if desired.
