Crispy Lean Chicken and Bell Pepper Quesadillas
Enjoy a vibrant and crispy quesadilla that marries tender lean chicken with sweet, charred bell peppers and melty low-fat cheese, all nestled in a whole wheat tortilla. This versatile dish offers a satisfying blend of textures and flavors perfect for any meal of the day.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 medium Red Bell Pepper
1 Whole Wheat Tortilla
1 oz Low-Fat Shredded Cheddar Cheese
Olive Oil Cooking Spray
Seasonings (Salt, Pepper, Garlic Powder)
PREPARATION
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and lightly coat with olive oil cooking spray.
Season the chicken breast with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Cook the chicken in the skillet until fully cooked and slightly crispy on the edges, about 5-7 minutes per side.
While the chicken is cooking, slice the red bell pepper into thin strips.
Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the skillet and let it rest for a couple of minutes before slicing it into thin strips or bite-size pieces.
Wipe the skillet clean, and then add a few bell pepper strips. Sauté them just until they are slightly tender but still crisp, about 2-3 minutes.
Place the whole wheat tortilla on the skillet over low heat. Evenly distribute the chicken and sautéed bell peppers over half of the tortilla, then sprinkle the low-fat shredded cheese on top.
Fold the tortilla over to form a quesadilla and press gently. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side until the cheese melts and the tortilla becomes crisp.
Remove the quesadilla from the skillet, slice into wedges if desired, and serve warm.
