BBQ Chicken Quesadillas

 

Ingredients (makes 4 large quesadillas):

2 cups cooked chicken, shredded or chopped

½ cup BBQ sauce (sweet, smoky, or spicy—your pick!)

2 cups shredded cheese (cheddar, Monterey Jack, or a blend)

½ small red onion, thinly sliced (optional for crunch and zing)

1 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro (optional)

4 large flour tortillas

Butter or oil for cooking

Ranch or sour cream, for dipping

Instructions:

Prep the filling:

Toss the cooked chicken with BBQ sauce until coated. Add red onions and cilantro if using.

Assemble the quesadillas:

Lay a tortilla flat. On one half, layer a bit of cheese, then a scoop of BBQ chicken mix, then more cheese. Fold over to close.

Cook to golden perfection:

Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add a little butter or oil. Cook each quesadilla 2–3 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy, and the cheese is melted.

Slice & serve:

Let them rest 1 minute before cutting into wedges. Serve with ranch, sour cream, or extra BBQ sauce.
