Chicken Quesadilla Recipe

Bbq Chicken Quesadilla Recipe
I am constantly in search of ways to expand my chicken quesadilla recipe box, because they're simple to make, tasty to eat, and fun to serve. Noticing how barbeque chicken pizza has taken off, I thought 'why not try it in the style of a quesadilla?' So, I did. The easiness of this recipe is almost as 'sinful' as the taste. I will also reveal some variations and pointers, so that you might also get inspired to experiment in the kitchen.

Barbeque Chicken Quesadilla Recipe
3 boneless chicken breasts
8 flour tortillas
1 tsp garlic, freshly minced
Salt and pepper, to taste
½ cup sliced red onion, or sweet Vidalia
1 T oil
1 cup ketchup
¾ cup brown sugar
5 T vinegar
1 T Worcestershire sauce
1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
Cut the chicken in half, or quarters so that it cooks sooner, without overcooking. Saute the chicken, garlic, onions, salt and pepper in the heated oil, until chicken is tender. At the same time, blend the barbeque sauce by mixing the ketchup, brown sugar, vinegar, and Worcestershire sauce. Once the chicken is done, shred it with a fork, and add the bbq sauce, and cook an additional 10 minutes to meld the flavors. Next, place a tortilla in the saute pan, then layer the barbeque chicken mixture and cheese. Top that with an additional tortilla and cook on medium heat, until golden brown on both sides. I often serve these with coleslaw or chips.

VARIATIONS
Try changing out the vinegar in the sauce with beer. It delivers a totally unique flavor, while keeping it a bbq sauce.

Add a dash of hot sauce, or few minced hot peppers to the sauce for some heat.

I have also replaced the mozzarella for a smoky provolone, adding a richer and smoked taste.

Pointers
Make the meat and sauce mixture 24 hours in advance for a deeper and richer flavor, because the flavors are given a chance to meld.

It is possible to use your preferred prepared barbeque sauce instead making the sauce in the recipe, if you would like to save time.

I've added mushrooms for a twist, or bell peppers while sauteing the meat.
Whichever way you decide to make these, they are really distinctive, tasty, and enjoyable to serve. Just make sure to tell people ahead of time that they are not taking a bite of a standard chicken quesadilla recipe. Otherwise, they might be a little stunned at first. Yep, it's happened to me. However, they loved it after they figured out it was SUPPOSED to taste different.

It is highly prized because of its many uses, particularly for the creation of the delicious and aromatic Tulsi tea.

Tulsi tea benefits are still being studied today, but one thing is for sure: it is already embedded in the history and culture of India. Tulsi tea is now enjoyed by millions of Indians on a daily basis, whether in the morning, afternoon, or at night. It can be enjoyed hot or cold, and is sometimes infused with other herbal flavors.

Tulsi has become so widely popular in India that it is even grown in earthen pots in traditional Indian homes. It is also seen thriving in temples. Buddhist monks add it as well to their daily ritual as a drink to help them relax and meditate.

Chicken Quesadilla Recipe

Bbq Chicken Quesadilla Recipe
I am constantly in search of ways to expand my chicken quesadilla recipe box, because they're simple to make, tasty to eat, and fun to serve. Noticing how barbeque chicken pizza has taken off, I thought 'why not try it in the style of a quesadilla?' So, I did. The easiness of this recipe is almost as 'sinful' as the taste. I will also reveal some variations and pointers, so that you might also get inspired to experiment in the kitchen.

Barbeque Chicken Quesadilla Recipe
3 boneless chicken breasts
8 flour tortillas
1 tsp garlic, freshly minced
Salt and pepper, to taste
½ cup sliced red onion, or sweet Vidalia
1 T oil
1 cup ketchup
¾ cup brown sugar
5 T vinegar
1 T Worcestershire sauce
1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
Cut the chicken in half, or quarters so that it cooks sooner, without overcooking. Saute the chicken, garlic, onions, salt and pepper in the heated oil, until chicken is tender. At the same time, blend the barbeque sauce by mixing the ketchup, brown sugar, vinegar, and Worcestershire sauce. Once the chicken is done, shred it with a fork, and add the bbq sauce, and cook an additional 10 minutes to meld the flavors. Next, place a tortilla in the saute pan, then layer the barbeque chicken mixture and cheese. Top that with an additional tortilla and cook on medium heat, until golden brown on both sides. I often serve these with coleslaw or chips.

VARIATIONS
Try changing out the vinegar in the sauce with beer. It delivers a totally unique flavor, while keeping it a bbq sauce.

Add a dash of hot sauce, or few minced hot peppers to the sauce for some heat.

I have also replaced the mozzarella for a smoky provolone, adding a richer and smoked taste.

Pointers
Make the meat and sauce mixture 24 hours in advance for a deeper and richer flavor, because the flavors are given a chance to meld.

It is possible to use your preferred prepared barbeque sauce instead making the sauce in the recipe, if you would like to save time.

I've added mushrooms for a twist, or bell peppers while sauteing the meat.
Whichever way you decide to make these, they are really distinctive, tasty, and enjoyable to serve. Just make sure to tell people ahead of time that they are not taking a bite of a standard chicken quesadilla recipe. Otherwise, they might be a little stunned at first. Yep, it's happened to me. However, they loved it after they figured out it was SUPPOSED to taste different.
