No reviews

Quick, spicy, and cheesy, these quesadillas are an easy and delicious meal made with shredded chicken, Sriracha, and cheese, all packed into a crispy tortilla.

  • Total Time: 20 minutes
  • Yield: 3-4 servings

Ingredients

  • For the Filling:
  • 2 cups shredded chicken
  • ¼ cup Sriracha
  • 2 tablespoons sour cream
  • 2 cups shredded cheese (your choice)
  • ¼ cup chopped cilantro leaves
  • For Cooking:
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • For the Quesadillas:
  • 6 (6-inch) tortillas

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Filling: In a large bowl, mix together the shredded chicken, Sriracha, sour cream, shredded cheese, and chopped cilantro.
  2. Cook the Quesadilla: Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Spoon ¼ cup of the chicken mixture onto the center of a tortilla, keeping it mostly in the middle (it will spread as it melts). Place another tortilla on top, gently press it down, and place it in the skillet. Cook for about 2 minutes, until lightly browned. Flip the quesadilla and cook for another 2 minutes until the other side is golden.
  3. Cut and Serve: Remove the quesadilla from the skillet and use a pizza cutter to slice it into 4 parts. Serve with your favorite sides, such as guacamole, salsa, or sour cream.
