Chicken Quesadillas
Chicken Quesadillas Submitted by AKathy
4 skinless, boneless chicken breats
1 Tablespoon Shilling Garlic Pepper
1 med. onion, chopped
1 green pepper, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1- 15 ounce can diced tomatoes with juice
8 flour tortillas
2 cups shredded Monterey Jack and Cheddar Cheese
* Chop chicken into small pieces. Fry with garlic pepper until done. Remove from heat. Saute onion, green pepper and garlic with a little butter, till tender. Add tomatoes with juice and simmer until liquid is absorbed. Lightly brown tortillas on both sides in a non-stick frying pan. Place 4 tortillas in single layers on cookie sheets. Sprinkle each with 1/4 cup of cheese mixture. Top each with 1/4 of chicken and then 1/4 of tomato mixture. Sprinkle each with 1/4 cup more of cheese. Top each with another tortilla. Bake at 375 degrees for about 10-15 or until cheese melts. Cut into wedges and serve with sour cream, guacamole and salsa if desired. (I make these in the morning and then refrigerate until I need to bake them. They also freze very well. I put wax paper between them and freeze in a ziploc bag. Then when I want to make them, I do it from the frozen state and it doesn't take much longer than when they're first made. They can be used as an appetizer or main dish, depending on how big you cut the wedges. My family absolutely adores these. I even made them for my Mexican son-in-law and he gave them a big thumbs up! I usually serve these with Spanish Rice and refried beans.
