CHICKEN QUESADILLAS - SKINNYTASTE



Chicken Quesadillas - Skinnytaste image

These chicken quesadillas are a meal in one! Loaded with chicken and veggies and very filling (I couldn't finish mine). I made these for dinner with my leftover avocado mango salsa but these are also great for lunch or you can even serve them as appetizers.

Total Time 45 minutes

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

16 oz skinless chicken breast (fat trimmed)
cumin
oregano
garlic powder
salt and fresh pepper
cooking spray
1/2 small onion (cut into strips)
1 bell pepper (red or green cut into strips)
1 clove garlic (minced)
1 tbsp oil
1-1/3 cup part-skim Mexican blend shredded cheese
1 cup avocado mango salsa
8 low carb whole wheat flour tortillas (La Tortilla Factory)

Steps:

  • Slice chicken breast in half so you have 4 cutlets.
  • Season chicken generously with salt, pepper, cumin, oregano and garlic powder.
  • Lightly spray a skillet on medium heat with oil or if using a grill, grill chicken until cooked on both sides.
  • Remove from heat and cut chicken into strips, set aside.
  • To the skillet, add 1 tbsp oil and cook onions and peppers, season with salt and pepper.
  • Cook about 2 minutes, add garlic and continue cooking until vegetables are soft being careful not to burn the garlic. When cooked, set aside.
  • Heat skillet on medium heat and lightly spray with oil. Add tortilla, top with cheese, chicken, onions, peppers, and pico de gallo or avocado-mango salsa. Top with the other tortilla.
  • Cheese should be melted and the bottom of the tortilla should be golden brown. Put a plate on top of the quesadilla to flip it over onto the plate. Then slide the other side onto the skillet.
  • Cook another minute and remove with a spatula. Cut into wedges and serve with sour cream if you wish.

MAL'S SAMOSA QUESADILLAS WITH CURRIED CABBAGE AND ...



Mal's Samosa Quesadillas with Curried Cabbage and ... image

This may sound like a lot of ingredients, but I usually have these spices on hand. The main ingredients make this a cheap dish. Who wants to make samosas by hand when you can make these? Serve hot or warm with your favorite chutney, if you like.

Total Time 1 hours 0 minutes

Prep Time 20 minutes

Cook Time 40 minutes

Yield 8 quesadillas

Number Of Ingredients 25

½ (10 ounce) package frozen peas
5 red potatoes, scrubbed and cubed
¼ cup soy milk, or more as needed
2 tablespoons thinly sliced green onion
2 tablespoons curry powder
1 tablespoon vegan margarine
2 teaspoons ground turmeric
1 ½ teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon garlic powder
⅛ teaspoon ground coriander
freshly ground black pepper to taste
¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro
8 (10 inch) flour tortillas
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 small head cabbage, outer leaves discarded - quartered, cored, and thinly sliced
1 (15 ounce) can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
2 teaspoons dehydrated onion flakes
2 teaspoons curry powder, or more to taste
1 teaspoon bottled minced ginger
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon garlic powder
⅛ teaspoon garam masala
⅛ teaspoon ground coriander

Steps:

  • Place peas in a small saucepan and pour in enough water to cover. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and cook until tender, 4 to 6 minutes. Drain.
  • Place cubed potatoes in a large pot and pour in enough water to cover. Bring to a boil and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain potatoes; return to the pot. Cook over medium-high heat until dry, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat.
  • Mash potatoes with a potato masher or whisk until mostly smooth. Mix in soy milk, green onion, 2 tablespoons curry powder, vegan margarine, 2 teaspoons turmeric, cumin, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/8 teaspoon coriander, and black pepper. Stir in cilantro. Gently fold peas into filling mixture.
  • Place 1 tortilla on a flat work surface; spoon potato filling over one half. Fold over into a half-moon shape. Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling.
  • Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Toast quesadillas one at a time until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side.
  • Heat a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add olive oil and turn the skillet to coat. Add cabbage, chickpeas, and onion flakes; cook, stirring occasionally, until cabbage starts to wilt, about 4 minutes.
  • Stir 2 teaspoons curry powder, ginger, 1 teaspoon turmeric, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, garam masala, and 1/8 teaspoon coriander into the cabbage mixture. Reduce heat to medium and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until chickpeas are cooked through, about 5 minutes more. Serve alongside quesadillas.
