Herbaceous, slow-roasted chicken meets fresh lime and melted cheese in a quesadilla that's anything but standard. Fold in a splash of tequila with the lime for a grown-up version — ready in the time it takes to heat a pan.

Ingredients

1/2 red onion

1 bell pepper

1 lb (450 g) chicken breast fillets

1 pkg Rotisserie Chicken Seasoning

1 lime

2 tbsp oil (divided)

8 medium flour tortillas

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Preparation

1. Thinly slice pepper and onion. Place pepper, onion, and chicken in a microwave-safe bowl. Stir in seasoning. Cover and microwave on high 5–6 min, or until chicken is cooked through. Slice lime in half. Squeeze in juice from ½ lime; stir to combine. Slice remaining ½ lime into wedges.

2. In a Sauté Pan, heat ½ tbsp oil over medium-high heat. Add one tortilla to the pan; spread with ¼ of the cheese and ¼ of the veggie and chicken mixture. Add second tortilla on top. Cook until golden brown, 1 min per side.

3. Repeat with remaining tortillas. Slice tortillas into wedges and serve with lime wedges and additional toppings, if desired.

Recipe Note

Prepare quesadillas in the oven. Bake at 400° F on a lined sheet pan for 10 min, or until cheese has melted and tortillas are starting to brown.
