EL DORADO QUESADILLAS

I have made quesadillas many, many times and this was by far the best so far.

EL DORADO QUESADILLAS

Ingredients:
  • flour or corn soft, tortilla shells
  • 1-2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into thin strips
  • 1 tbsp olive oil (note: I used Oliv brand, Jalapeño Lime olive oil)
  • 1 tsp Epicure's Poco Picante Salsa Mix (optional)
  • 1 jalapeño, seeded and chopped
  • 1 red hot pepper, seeded and chopped
  • 1/4 red onion, chopped
  • 1 roma tomato, chopped
  • cheese, shredded - type and amount as desired  (I use a combination of mozzarella and cheddar)
  • guacamole, amount as desired Recipe for Guacamole
  • 1 prepared Epicure's El Dorado Secret Sauce
    • El Dorado Secret Sauce
    • olive oil
    • water

Directions:
  • Warm 1 tbsp olive oil in frying pan and add chicken. I added Poco Picante Salsa Mix to chicken while cooking to give additional flavour
  • Cook chicken on each side ~5 minutes or until thoroughly cooked
  • While chicken is cooking, prepare vegetables and guacamole
  • Once chicken is cooked, prepare quesadillas as desired
Method that I used when preparing:
  • Spread guacamole over tortilla shell
  • Added prepared Epicure El Dorado Sauce ontop of guacamole
  • Layered cheese over shell
  • Add desired amount of chicken, jalapeño and red peppers, tomatoes, and onions
  • Fold quesadilla in half and placed on warm frying pan to brown tortilla shell and allow for cheese to melt
  • Serve with remaining El Dorado sauce to dip!
