Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked shredded chicken (or 2 small chicken breasts - see notes)
  • 1/2 cup storebought or homemade BBQ sauce
  • 1 cup grated cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup frozen corn (thawed)
  • 1/4 cup cooked black beans
  • 1/4 cup diced red pepper
  • 1/4 cup diced onion
  • 2 teaspoons cooking oil
  • 4 10-inch flour tortillas

Instructions

  1. 1

    mix ingredients: Mix the shredded chicken with the BBQ sauce. Grate the cheese and have the corn, beans, red pepper, and onion ready to use.

  2. 2

    cook tortilla: Heat a nonstick pan over medium-low heat. Drizzle a little oil (about ½ teaspoon) on one side of a tortilla. Use your hands to spread it over both sides of the tortilla. Put the tortilla into the pan and let it cook for 10 seconds. Remove the pan from the heat and flip the tortilla over.

  3. 3

    add filling: Spread ¼ cup of the cheese over half of the tortilla. Top with ½ cup of the chicken and 1 tablespoon each of the corn, black beans, and red pepper. Fold the empty half of the tortilla over the filling and press the edges together. Put the pan back on the heat and let the quesadilla cook for 2 minutes. Flip it over and let it cook for 2 minutes more.

  4. 4

    cut quesadilla: Remove the quesadilla from the pan. Cut it in half then cut both pieces in half again so that you have 4 triangle slices. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and fillings.
