Directions

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.
3 Cook 2 to 3 minutes, turning once, until tortilla is golden brown and cheese is melted. Repeat to make remaining quesadillas. Cut each quesadilla into 4 wedges. Serve with salsa.

EXPERT TIPS

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.

Delicious! This is a great recipe when you need something quick and tasty. Made it the way as listed, and I also made it with leftover beef. The next time I make it, I will prob use less sour cream and a pinch more cheese.
