Ingredients

1 package Abbot’s Butcher Chopped Chick’n

Description

An adult spin on a childhood classic, these Chick’n and spinach quesadillas are worthy of a restaurant menu. This is comfort food in 15 minutes or less.

Method

  1. Prepare Chick’n according to package instructions. Set aside.

  2. For a more indulgent quesadilla, spread mayo on one side of one tortilla.

  3. Place tortilla (mayo side up) in a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat. Cover with half of the cheese, leaving a ¼ inch perimeter on all sides. Top with spinach and Chick’n, then the remaining cheese. Cover with the other tortilla and press down lightly. 

  4. Cook until the cheese on the bottom begins to melt. You may have to move the quesadilla around a bit to prevent sticking/burning. Carefully, flip the quesadilla. 

  5. Continue to cook until the cheese has melted completely. 

  6. Remove from the skillet and slice into triangles with a very sharp knife or pizza cutter.

  7. Serve with salsa, cilantro, and guacamole on the side.
