Bennigans Chicken Quesadilla Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler. Grease a baking sheet.
• Toss the chicken with the fajita seasoning, then spread onto the baking sheet. Place under the broiler and cook until the chicken pieces are no longer pink in the center, about 5 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the green bell peppers, red bell peppers, onion, and chicken. Cook and stir until the vegetables have softened, about 10 minutes.
• Layer half of each tortilla with the chicken and vegetable mixture, then sprinkle with the Cheddar cheese, bacon bits, and Monterey Jack. Fold the tortillas in half and Place onto a baking sheet.
• Bake quesadillas in the preheated oven until the cheeses have melted, about 10 minutes.

Steps:

• Fry chicken in a pan coated with cooking spray or olive oil.
• After chicken is cooked, add water and seasoning to the pan.
• Sauce will thicken slightly after a few minutes.
• Set the chicken and sauce aside while preparing the other ingredients.
• Butter one side of all the tortillas and set aside.
• Dice the tomato and the onion, mix and also set aside.
• Place a tortilla, buttered side down, on hot pan or griddle.
• Layer ingredient in the following order on the tortilla: cheese, chicken and sauce, tomato/onion mixture, cheese, salsa.
• Top with another tortilla, buttered side up.
• Once the cheese starts to bubble from the sides of the quesadilla it typically is time to flip it.
• Be careful to keep everything together while flipping.
• I used a spatula underneath (in one hand) and some tongs to hold the quesadilla together (in the other hand) and flipped quickly.
• Shell should be crunchy and a golden color.
• If you find that the quesadilla is semi plump in the center, simply press down with spatula once you have flipped it.
• Let stand for a few moments and then cut into quarters, serve with your choice of sour cream, guacamole or salsa for dipping.

Steps:

• 1. Spray large skillet with cooking spray; heat over medium heat. Add chicken and undrained tomatoes; cook 10 minutes or until chicken pieces are no longer pink in centers and liquid has evaporated, stirring frequently.
• 2. Spread chicken mixture evenly onto bottom half of each tortilla to within 1 inch of edge. Sprinkle 1/2 cup cheese over chicken mixture on each tortilla. Fold each tortilla in half to cover filling.
• 3. Clean skillet. Spray with additional cooking spray; heat over medium-high heat. Cook quesadillas 3 minutes on each side or until golden brown on both sides. Cut into wedges to serve.
