Ingredients

  • 8 tortillas (190g), I like Mission gluten free tortillas
  • 3 cups (710ml) cooked then shredded chicken breast, ~1lb (454g) pre-cooked weight
  • 8 oz (227g) shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • Barbecue sauce


Instructions

  1. Combine the shredded chicken with your preferred amount of barbecue sauce in a bowl, then leave it aside.
  2. Warm up a large frying pan over medium heat and coat it with nonstick spray. Lay one tortilla flat in the pan, then evenly spread a light layer of shredded cheddar on top. Place a quarter of the barbecue chicken mixture over the cheese, and cover it with another light layer of cheddar. Top with another tortilla. Cook until the bottom tortilla turns a golden brown, then flip it to brown the other side. Gently move the quesadilla to a cooling rack to cool slightly as you continue cooking the remaining quesadillas with the rest of the ingredients.
  3. Cut the quesadillas into slices using a pizza cutter and serve them with additional barbecue sauce on the side for dipping.

Notes

  • Evenly distribute the shredded cheddar cheese for a consistent cheesy flavor in every bite.
  • Use a generous amount of barbecue sauce for a bold and flavorful chicken filling.
  • Allow the quesadillas to cool slightly on a rack before cutting to help set the cheese and prevent leakage.
