Crispy Chicken and Black Bean Whole Wheat Quesadilla
A satisfying quesadilla featuring crispy, seasoned chicken breast paired with hearty black beans, all nestled in a whole wheat tortilla and lightly melted with reduced-fat cheese. This dish harmoniously balances flavor, texture, and nutritional benefits for a fulfilling meal any time of day.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Black Beans
1 Whole Wheat Tortilla
1/4 cup Reduced-Fat Shredded Cheese
1 tsp Olive Oil
Spices (Cumin, Garlic Powder, Salt, Pepper)
PREPARATION
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Season the chicken breast with cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Cook the chicken in the skillet for about 5-6 minutes per side until fully cooked and golden. Once cooked, let it rest briefly and then chop into bite-sized pieces.
Warm the black beans in a small saucepan or microwave until heated through.
Place the whole wheat tortilla on a clean surface. Evenly spread the black beans over one half of the tortilla.
Layer the chopped crispy chicken on top of the beans, then sprinkle the reduced-fat shredded cheese evenly over the chicken.
Fold the tortilla in half to cover the filling.
Return the folded quesadilla to the skillet over medium heat. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until the tortilla is crispy and the cheese has melted.
Remove from heat, slice into wedges, and serve with your favorite salsa or a light dollop of Greek yogurt.
