Chicken Quesadilla

Recipe adapted from Laura Vitale, i had to modify the recipe because i didn't have some of the ingredients on hand. The chicken quesadillas are soooo good, especially when you have them with pico de gallo salsa (Laura Vitale's recipe). It will make you come back for more ;-)

Ingredients:

400 g chicken breast, cut into thin strips

2 cloves medium garlic, finely chopped

1 small onion, finely chopped

1 tbs paprika powder

1 tsp chilli powder

1/2 tsp dried oregano

Salt and pepper to taste

200 g shredded cheese (i choose to use gouda for this recipe)

5 tortilla wraps (diameter 20cm)

1 tbs olive oil

1 tbs butter

Vegetable oil for the tortillas

How to Make:

• In a plate mix the garlic, onion, paprika, chilli, oregano, salt and pepper. Add the chicken to the mixed spices until evenly well coated.
• Preheat a cooking pan over medium heat, add the chicken. Cook it for about 8 min or until fully cooked.
• Brush one side of tortillas with vegetable oil and turn them around in a plate (oiled side down). Sprinkle the half side with cheese, top that with some chicken and sprinkle on top of that with some cheese again. Fold it in half. Continue with the remaining ingredients.
• Preheat a grill pan over medium heat.
• Place the folded tortilla on a grill pan, cook it for about 2 min on each side or until golden brown on each sides. 
• Serve the quesadillas with salsa (optional)
