Chicken Quesadillas


I am not a big fan of Quesadillas, but my husband likes them. So, when I came across this recipe I gave it a try. I actually really liked it and will do it again.

2 1/2 cups shredded cooked chicken
2/3 cup salsa
1/3 cup sliced green onions
3/4 to 1 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp dried oregano
6 flour tortillas (8 inches)
1/4 cup butter, melted
2 cups (8 ounces) shredded Monterey Jack cheese (I actually used mozarella with a chedder mix)
sour cream and guacamole

In a skillet, combine the first six ingrediets. Cook, uncovered, over medium heat for 10 minutes or until heated through, stirring occasionally. Brush one side of tortillas with butter. Spoon 1/3 cup chicken mixture over half of unbuttered side of each tortilla. Sprinkle with 1/3 cup cheese; fold plain side of tortilla over cheese.

Place on a lightly greased baking sheet. Bake at 475 for 10 minutes or until crips and golden brown. Cut into wedges; serve with sour cream and quacamole. Yield: 6 servings.
