A Labor Of Love Always Tastes Amazing

Add the marinade ingredients into a bowl whisking to combine. Then add the chopped chicken tossing until all the chicken is well coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap before placing it in the fridge for a minimum of 30 min but up to 5 hours.

Place the tortilla in a dry non-stick pan on low medium heat until it has puffed slightly but with little to no browning then set aside in a warmer or place a towel over them.

Preheat your pan over medium-high heat with a light coating of grapeseed oil. Toss in chicken cooking until it is cooked through (155F) Remove from heat and set aside to cool.

Assemble your quesadilla, by placing a layer of Chihuahua cheese on half of the flour tortilla then add your desired amount of chicken followed by a bit more cheese to hold it together. Lastly, fold the tortilla in half.

Preheat your skillet over medium heat. Drizzle the pan with grapeseed oil, then add your quesadillas; two at a time until golden brown flip and repeat the process.

Remove from the pan, and slice in half. Garnish with cilantro, sour cream, and lime.
Enjoy!
