INGREDIENTS
3 ounces Chicken Breast
1 Whole Wheat Tortilla
1/4 cup Black Beans (rinsed, drained)
1/8 cup Reduced-Fat Cheddar Cheese
Cooking Spray
1/2 teaspoon Cumin Powder
1/2 teaspoon Paprika
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Season the chicken breast with cumin, paprika, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until fully cooked and slightly crispy. Once done, shred or dice the chicken.
Spray one side of the whole wheat tortilla lightly with cooking spray. On the non-sprayed side, layer the shredded chicken, black beans, and reduced-fat cheddar cheese.
Fold the tortilla in half, pressing gently to compact the filling.
Place the assembled quesadilla on the prepared baking sheet and spray the top lightly with cooking spray.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes or until the tortilla is crispy and the cheese is melted. If desired, flip halfway through for even crispness.
Remove from oven, slice into wedges, and serve warm.
