Author: Chef Mia

Description

These cheesy quesadillas combine tender chicken, melty cheese, and a sweet and spicy honey sauce, perfect for a quick dinner or gathering.

Ingredients

Scale

1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into small pieces

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon salt
0.5 teaspoon pepper, to taste

0.33 cup honey
2–3 tablespoons hot sauce

Instructions

In a skillet over medium-high heat, add olive oil.

Season the chicken with smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
Cook the chicken for about 10 minutes until it turns golden and is cooked through.
In a small bowl, whisk together honey and hot sauce. Pour this mixture over the cooked chicken and toss until the chicken is well coated. Keep warm.

In a separate bowl, mix sour cream, chopped jalapeños, lime juice, garlic powder, and salt. Refrigerate until you are ready to serve.
Take a flour tortilla and lay it flat. Sprinkle a layer of cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese on top, then add a portion of the hot honey chicken.
Add another light sprinkle of cheese and top with a second tortilla.

In a skillet over medium heat, melt a little butter.
Place the quesadilla in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until it is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Slice into wedges, and drizzle or serve with the jalapeño cream sauce. Garnish with fresh cilantro if desired.

Notes

Feel free to adjust the amount of hot sauce to control the spiciness. You can add other fillings like bell peppers or onions for extra flavor.
