Crispy Baked Chicken Fajita Quesadillas

Ingredients

• 3 small (or 2 medium chicken breasts, pounded evenly)
• 2 tablespoons fajita seasoning (or see note below for fajita spice recipe)
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 1/2 onion (sliced)
• 1 large bell pepper (sliced (any color))
• 4 (8 inch) flour tortillas
• Olive oil spray
• 1 cup shredded cheese (Mozzarella, Cheddar, Monterey jacket, Pepper jack, Mexican or taco blend)
• cooking spray

Instructions

1. 1

   Pre-heat oven to 400F. Grease a large baking sheet with cooking spray or olive oil and set aside.

2. 2

   Place chicken and fajita spices in ziplock bag or large bowl and combine until chicken is fully coated.

3. 3

   Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large heavy-duty pan for at least 2 minutes. Add the chicken and cook on medium-high heat for 5-6 minutes on each side or until cooked through. Cool for 4-5 minutes then chop into small pieces.

4. 4

   Remove chicken from the pan and add the sliced onion and bell peppers to the same pan. Cook on high heat for 2-3 minutes or until lightly charred.

5. 5

   Place the tortillas on the sheet pan and fill each half with 1/4th of the chicken mixture, 1/4th of the bell pepper mixture and 1/4 cup of cheese. Fold and spray with cooking spray.

6. 6

   Bake for 10 minutes, flip and bake for 10 more minutes. Remove from oven and serve immediately while hot. We like to dip them in salsa, sour-cream or guacamole. Enjoy!
