INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 Whole Wheat Tortilla
1/4 cup Reduced-Fat Cheddar Cheese
1/4 cup Crushed Cornflakes
1 tbsp BBQ Sauce
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/4 cup Red Onion (sliced)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Cut the chicken breast into thin strips. In a bowl, toss the chicken with 1/2 tablespoon of BBQ sauce, ensuring even coating.
Dredge the chicken strips in the crushed cornflakes to form a light, crispy coating.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sauté the chicken strips for 3-4 minutes per side until they are cooked through and crispy. Optionally, drizzle a little extra BBQ sauce during the last minute of cooking.
Meanwhile, on one half of the whole wheat tortilla, sprinkle the reduced-fat cheddar cheese evenly, then top with the crispy chicken, and scatter sliced red onion over the top. Drizzle the remaining BBQ sauce over the filling.
Fold the tortilla in half to cover the filling completely.
Place the assembled quesadilla in a clean skillet or on a griddle over medium heat. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until the tortilla is lightly browned and the cheese is melted.
Remove from heat, cut into wedges, and serve warm.
