Instructions

  1. Heat a large skillet over medium high heat and add the olive oil. Add the onion and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly charred, about 7-8 minutes. Stir in the chicken, chili powder, cumin, garlic, and salt.
  2. Lay the tortillas out on a cutting board. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons shredded cheese on half of each tortilla. Spoon some of the chicken mixture on top. Place a few slices of avocado on top of the chicken and top with another 2 tablespoons cheese. Fold the tortillas in half over the filling and press down to flatten slightly.
  3. Spray a large skillet with olive oil spray and place two quesadillas in the skillet. Cook a few minutes on each side until the tortillas are toasted and cheese is melted. Remove to a plate and cook the remaining two quesadillas. Cut each quesadilla into three pieces and serve with desired toppings.

Notes

  • Serve these quesadillas with your favorite toppings like salsa and sour cream (or Greek yogurt). They're also delicious with my tasty Chipotle Corn Salsa (copycat recipe).
