Chicken Quesadillas

Servings: 4

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cooking Time: 10 minutes

Partner: black bean soup

JalapeƱo peppers are a better bargain and have better flavor when bought fresh. Once deseeded and chopped, the peppers will keep for 6 months in the freezer -- ready for the next recipe of Chicken Quesadillas.

Ingredients

1 (10-ounce) can cream of chicken soup

2 cup chopped cooked chicken

3/4 cup shredded Cheddar cheese, divided

3/4 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese, divided

1 Tbsp chopped jalapeno

8 flour tortillas, heated

2 Tbsp butter or margarine

1/2 cup salsa

1/2 cup sour cream

Directions

  1. Mix soup, chicken, 1/2 cup Cheddar, 1/2 cup Monterey Jack and jalapeno in a medium saucepan. Cook, stirring frequently, over medium heat until heated through, about 5 minutes.

  2. Divide chicken mixture among each tortilla, spreading to within 1/2 inch of edges.

  3. Moisten tortilla edges with water; fold over to enclose filling. Press tortilla edges together to seal.

  4. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat; add quesadillas. Cook until heated through, about 10 minutes. Top with remaining cheese. Serve with salsa and sour cream.

Chicken Quesadillas tip: Don't forget to wear plastic or latex gloves when handling jalapenos. To soften the flour tortillas for easier handling, place them with a slightly damp paper towel in a sealed plastic bag and microwave on HIGH for 1 minute.
