Healthy Crispy BBQ Chicken Quesadilla
Savor a delicious twist on a classic quesadilla featuring tender grilled chicken infused with smoky BBQ sauce nestled between a whole wheat tortilla and melted low-fat cheese. Lightly crisped to perfection in a non-stick skillet, this meal offers a satisfying balance of protein and flavor without compromising your nutritional goals.
INGREDIENTS
3 oz Chicken Breast
1 tbsp BBQ Sauce
1 Whole Wheat Tortilla
1/4 cup Low-Fat Shredded Cheese
1 cup Spinach
Olive Oil Cooking Spray
PREPARATION
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly coat with olive oil cooking spray.
Season the chicken breast lightly with salt and pepper. Grill or sear in the skillet for about 5-6 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Once cooked, slice the chicken into thin strips.
In a small bowl, toss the chicken strips with BBQ sauce until evenly coated.
Lay the whole wheat tortilla flat in the skillet over medium heat. Sprinkle half of the cheese evenly across the tortilla, then evenly distribute the sauced chicken and fresh spinach on top.
Sprinkle the remaining cheese over the filling and fold the tortilla in half to form a quesadilla.
Cook for about 2-3 minutes per side, pressing gently with a spatula, until the tortilla is crispy and the cheese is melted.
Remove from the skillet, slice into wedges, and serve warm.
