Simple, healthy ingredients with bold, spicy flavor!
Ingredients
nonstick cooking spray
1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts
4 tsp fajita seasoning, divided
⅓ cup onion, diced
1 small yellow bell pepper, diced
1 small red or orange bell pepper, diced
10 (8-inch) whole wheat tortillas
2½ cups part-skim Mexican blend cheese, shredded
Instructions
Season chicken with 2 teaspoons of the fajita seasoning, rubbing into both sides of the breasts.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Spray with cooking spray and transfer chicken breasts to the skillet and cook 4-5 minutes per side or until cooked through; remove to a cutting board to cool slightly. Dice chicken and set aside.
To the skillet, add the onion and 1 teaspoon of the fajita seasoning. Saute the onion for 2-3 minutes or until slightly softened. Add to the skillet the remaining teaspoon of seasoning and the bell peppers. Saute the veggies for 6-8 minutes or until tender.
Mist a griddle or electric griddle with cooking spray and heat over medium-high heat. Add 1 tortilla, ¼ cup cheese, and ⅕ of the chicken and veggies followed by another ¼ cup cheese and a second tortilla. Heat the quesadillas 4-6 minutes per side or until the cheese has melted and the quesadilla can easily be flipped. Serve hot.
