Chicken, Avocado & Sun-dried Tomato Quesadillas

For the past few weeks, I’ve been wanting a big, cheesy quesadilla. When I told hubby about my craving he immediately suggested Taco Bell and this time I couldn’t even do it. Just to give you a little background here, I am a reformed Taco Bell junkie. I absolutely love that place but the thought of all the calories I would consume with one chicken quesadilla and meximelt (my standard order) was way too much to bare.

So, I decided that we would make our own and they turned out perfect! Quick and easy too 😉

Ingredients

1 Avocado

2 tbsp butter

4 – 10 inch Tortillas (we used ultragrain)

1lb Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast

1-2 tbsp Sun-dried Tomatoes, chopped

1 cup Cheddar Cheese (we went for fat free)

Season salt, garlic powder, onion powder & black pepper

Directions

* Cube and season the chicken to your liking

* Add to the skillet over med-high heat & cook for about 6 minutes or until golden brown

* Remove the chicken and rinse the skillet

* Add 1/2 tbsp of butter to the skillet over med-high heat

* Once melted, add one tortilla making sure the bottom gets well coated

* Layer chicken, avocado, sun-dried tomatoes & cheese on one side of the tortilla

* Flip the other half of the tortilla over with tongs and pressed down

* Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown & crispy

*Remove from skillet

* Repeat steps for each tortilla

* Cut, serve & enjoy! 

XOXO,
