Crispy Black Bean and Sweet Potato Protein Quesadillas
Enjoy a crispy quesadilla bursting with flavor and packed with protein from lean chicken, black beans, and roasted sweet potato. This recipe balances hearty ingredients with a blend of spices, fresh bell pepper and red onion, and melted reduced-fat cheese, all folded into a whole wheat tortilla and lightly crisped to perfection.
INGREDIENTS
3 oz cooked Chicken Breast
1/3 cup cooked Black Beans
1/2 cup roasted Sweet Potato cubes
1/3 cup shredded Reduced Fat Cheddar Cheese
1 Whole Wheat Tortilla
1/4 cup chopped Red Bell Pepper
1/8 small diced Red Onion
1 tsp Olive Oil Spray
Spices (cumin, chili powder, salt, pepper)
PREPARATION
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly spray with olive oil spray.
In a small bowl, combine the black beans, roasted sweet potato cubes, chopped red bell pepper, and diced red onion. Season with cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper to taste.
Shred or dice the cooked chicken breast and mix it into the bean and vegetable mixture.
Lay the whole wheat tortilla flat and evenly sprinkle the reduced-fat cheddar cheese over half of the tortilla.
Spread the chicken, black bean, and sweet potato mixture over the cheese layer, then fold the tortilla in half to form a quesadilla.
Place the quesadilla in the skillet and cook until the bottom is crispy and golden, about 3-4 minutes. Carefully flip and cook the other side for an additional 3-4 minutes until the cheese melts and the filling is warmed through.
Remove the quesadilla from the skillet, slice into wedges, and serve immediately.
