Savor a hearty, crispy quesadilla filled with tender BBQ-marinated chicken, melty reduced-fat cheddar cheese, and a burst of fresh veggies wrapped in a whole wheat tortilla. This dish strikes a delightful balance of smoky flavors and a crunchy texture, making it a versatile option for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 Whole Wheat Tortilla (70g)
2 tbsp BBQ Sauce
1/4 cup Reduced-Fat Cheddar Cheese
1/4 cup Red Bell Pepper, sliced
2 tbsp Red Onion, sliced
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 with salt and pepper if desired, then grill or pan-sear until fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes per side. Once cooked, let it rest briefly and then shred or thinly slice the chicken.
In a small bowl, toss the shredded chicken with BBQ sauce to evenly coat.
Lay the whole wheat tortilla flat on a clean surface. Sprinkle half of the reduced-fat cheddar cheese over one half of the tortilla, and layer the BBQ chicken, red bell pepper slices, and red onion slices on top.
Sprinkle the remaining cheese on top to help the quesadilla stick together, then fold the tortilla in half.
Return the folded quesadilla to the skillet and cook on medium heat. Press gently with a spatula and cook until the tortilla is crispy and golden, about 2-3 minutes per side, ensuring the cheese is melted.
Remove from the skillet, slice into wedges, and serve warm.
