Number Of Ingredients 11

1 (4 ounce) can diced green chilies
1 1/2 cups shredded monterey jack cheese
6 8-inch flour tortillas
1 cup shredded cooked chicken meat
1 small tomatoes, seeded and chopped
2 green onions, finely chopped
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
butter or margarine
guacamole (for garnish) (optional)
sour cream (for garnish) (optional)
salsa (for garnish) (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat a skillet over low heat.
  • Spread a small amount of butter evenly over one side of tortilla and place tortilla buttered side down in the skillet.
  • For each tortilla, sprinkle 1/4 cup cheese over 1/2 of the tortilla and top with chopped chilies, chicken, tomato, green onions, and cilantro.
  • Fold the other side over the top and press down gently.
  • Cook quesadilla over low heat 3-4 minutes or until lightly browned, turning once.
  • Remove quesadilla from skillet and keep warm on a plate in a low oven (300F).
  • Repeat with remaining tortillas.
  • When finished, serve quesadillas cut in three sections (using a pizza cutter works great) and garnished with guacamole, sour cream and salsa, if desired.
