    Chicken Quesadilla Recipe with step by step pictures. I have shared the chicken and cheese quesadilla recipe. You can also use paneer or tofu instead of chicken.

    Chicken Quesadilla

    Quesadilla is my favourite, it is nothing but any filling placed inside some tortilla along with cheese and toasted or grilled to perfection. So delicious and cheese. I have shared few versions of quesadilla and this one is the simple one you could ever make.

    Ingredients for Chicken Quesadilla Recipe

    • Tortilla - 2 (Click here for recipe)
    • Olive Oil - 1 tbsp + more for toasting quesadilla
    • Garlic - 2 cloves chopped finely
    • Onion - 1 medium size sliced thinly
    • Capsicum / Bell Pepper - ½ sliced thinly
    • Chicken - 1 boneless breast cut into small pieces
    • Italian Seasoning - 1 tsp
    • Tomato Ketchup - 3 tbsp
    • Salt to taste
    • Red Chilli Flakes - 1 tsp + more
    • Mozzarella Cheese as needed
    I used chicken in this one, but you could easily use paneer or tofu instead of chicken. But never skip cheese, cheese is what holds the filling in the tortilla. I grilled it in a grill pan which gave a nice grill mark on top, you could toast them on a tawa.
     
     
    Hope you will give this a try and let me know how it turns out for you..
