1/4
cup chopped drained roasted red bell peppers (from 7-oz jar)
1/4
cup sour cream
4
Old El Paso® flour tortillas for burritos (8-inch; from 11-oz package)
2
tablespoons vegetable oil
1/4
cup Old El Paso® enchilada sauce (from 10-oz can)

Old El Paso® Thick 'n Chunky salsa, if desired
  • 1 In medium bowl, mix chicken, roasted peppers and sour cream.
  • 2 Heat 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. To prepare each quesadilla, brush one side of tortilla with some of the oil. Place tortilla, oiled side down, in skillet. Brush 1 tablespoon enchilada sauce over entire tortilla. Top half of tortilla with 2 tablespoons cheese, 1/4 cup chicken mixture and 2 tablespoons more cheese. Fold other half of tortilla over filling, pressing down slightly.

Expert Tips

You can use 2 cups chopped cooked chicken or turkey for the packaged seasoned chicken breast strips. Your quesadillas just won't have quite the same flavors.
