Hi everyone! Today I'm gonna share with you one of my favorite recipe which you can prepare easily,
fast and with minimum products. It's called Chicken Quesadilla.
The ingredients we need are Tortillas, chicken breast, Mozarella/Cheddar, salt-pepper and other spices for your taste, and olive oil to cook.
Firstly, I washed and sliced the chicken breast into these small pieces. I used approximately 250 gr breast for 2 portion.
This size of pieces are ok for me,
but while cooking if see bigger pieces I'll make them smaller by spatula in the pan.
Now it's time to add the spices: today, I'm using salt, black pepper and red hot pepper.
But if you have or like other seasonings such as oregano, chili pepper you can use them, too.
Or you can even use hot sauce, it depends on your taste.
Now, chicken pieces are in the pan. At this point, you have to start mixing them as soon as you put them into a pan.
As the pan and oil is hot the chicken pieces immediately stick together and you have to mix and separate them.
I have to mentioned that there are endless ways to prepare quesadilla.
My this recipe is the simplest and easiest option which consists of just chicken and cheese.
However, there are also options such as with colorful peppers, ground beef and Mexican beans.
Till today I've prepared various options, I've even added corns or tomato sauce.
One of my favorite quesadilla type is with chicken, mushroom and cheese filling. Its taste was amazing!
The chicken pieces are already cooked, as you see I've made some of them even smaller.
Now it's time to let them to fry a bit, it will make our meal tastier.
When you see this view you'll feel that amazing smell in the kitchen. This view is enough for me.
While chicken pieces were cooking I grated the cheese. I didn't mentioned the amount of cheese
because some people love a lot, the others a bit. Measure it due to your taste.
Now it's time to fill the quesadillas.
I usually prepare them in two ways and you can see both of them at the same time.
At this point, don't make your pan too hot, try to keep it warm.
Because if the heat is high, your tortillas will burn
while you are filling your tortillas with cheese and chicken.
Therefore, keep the heat down during this process.
Here you can add any of your favorite sauces on your tortilla: it can be tomato paste, mayonnaise etc.
Now I am adding the chickens.
As the tortilla is getting warm the cheese has already melted.
While filling the tortilla don't put much stuff on the corners.
Because then it'll not be a nice look when the cheese melts and runs over the corners.
Finally, it's time to turn the tortilla over the filled part.
Time to make the heat high to the tortillas fry.
On the below option we put another tortilla on the filled one.
And VOILAAA! The quesadillas are ready. I cut them in a triangle shape.
I'm gonna show you inside, too. How well melted the cheese. Mmmmm :)
This stuff is really tasty and you can make it even tastier by adding another ingredients as I mentioned before.
So, thank you for watching! I hope this recipe will be helpful for you.
"Have a nice meal!" to whom is going to cook and enjoy the meal. Thank you!
