Chicken Quesadillas

Prep Time: 10-20 minutes
Cook Time: 20-30 Minutes

Ingredients: 

2 Organic Pasture Raised Chicken Breasts with bone and skin
Cumin
Paprika
Cayenne Pepper                                          
1 Bell Pepper
1 lime                                                                         
1 cup Cilantro
4 mushrooms                                                         
Butter/ Cooking Olive/ Avo. Oil
​Mexican Shredded Cheese ( Vegan Cheddar Cheese) 
`7-8 Flour Tortillas (See my tortilla recipe)

Steps: 

Boil or Bake chicken breast. Boil with bone and skin on with chicken broth (see my sauces on how to make), half an onion and garlic cubes. Cook until chicken reaches 165 internal. To bake chicken, place on glass cooking sheet, line with butter season, place raw chicken, season, throw pieces of butter on top and in between skin to keep moist. Bake for 35-40 minutes for 375 degrees. Bake until internal reads 165 degrees. Let cool, then shred using hands, removing any bones or skin. If you're really pressed for time, a simple tip is to buy a cooked roasted chicken. 

Cut up Bell Pepper, cilantro, mushroom and throw into a pan to sauté on medium to high heat, Make sure to line pan with 2 TBSP butter or oil first. Then season with fajita/ taco seasoning and 1 squeezed lime juice. Stir frequently for 5-7 minutes or until browned. Add chicken at the end add a bit more seasoning and lime juice, then stir fry for one minute. Remove from heat when done.

Warm up tortillas, only to make soft, do not let them brown! Warm up on the stove top better yet a comal. If you do not own one, it's okay, but please take yourself out to buy one ASAP! This is one of my favorite tools to use in the kitchen. Oh and there is a specific way to clean this flat cast iron beauty. Please never place it in the dishwasher!! Always wipe off and if you must wash it, wash with soap water, place back on stop to dry then cure. However, if you do not own one you can use a large pan.  

After all tortillas are warmed, fill each but only on one half of the side to allow for folding over tortillas. Place cheese, then fajita mix then more cheese, fold tortilla in one half and place on comal or large pan, let brown. Flip to second side and let brown or until cheese has melted. 

Do this for all tortillas, and once you are done, I like to use kitchen scissors to cut two times, giving three pizza pieces for each. 

Set all in a decorative platter and pair with guacamole.
