Teriyaki Chicken Quesadilla


  • Author: Chef Emy

Description

A delicious fusion of Japanese teriyaki and Mexican quesadilla, featuring tender chicken, melted cheese, and a sweet-savory sauce.


Ingredients

Scale

For the Crust:

  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, sliced
  • 1/4 cup teriyaki sauce
  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup sliced bell peppers
  • 1/2 cup sliced onions
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp black pepper

Instructions

1. Prepare the Crust:

  1. Marinate chicken slices in teriyaki sauce for at least 15 minutes.
  2. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a pan over medium heat. Cook chicken until fully done, about 5-7 minutes. Set aside.
  3. In the same pan, sauté bell peppers and onions until softened, about 3 minutes.
  4. Lay out tortillas. Sprinkle half of each tortilla with cheese, then add chicken and veggie mixture. Top with remaining cheese and fold tortillas in half.
  5. Heat remaining oil in a clean pan over medium heat. Cook each quesadilla for 2-3 minutes per side until golden and cheese melts.
  6. Slice into wedges and serve warm.

Notes

You can customize the seasonings to taste.
