I love Mexican food... even Americanized Mexican food. And what could be more delicious than quesadillas? This is my own creation, but I used Applebee's former quesadillas as my inspiration. These are super easy to make. The hardest part is chopping everything. But the flavor is amazing! Add a little homemade salsa verde and you've got a super easy and delicious dinner.
Quesadilla cheese
tortillas
jalapeños
tomatoes
onion
bacon bits
olive oil spray
I prep the quesadillas on a plate so that they're ready to cook. Put about 1/3 cup of cheese on half of a tortilla. Sprinkle with tomatoes, jalapeños, onions, and bacon to taste.
Heat a skillet large enough to hold the tortillas on medium-high. Spray lightly with olive oil spray. Fold tortilla in half and carefully place in skillet.
Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until slightly browned.
Keep prepping and cooking quesadillas until you have how many you want. If they start to cook too quickly then turn the heat down to medium. Cut up and enjoy!
I'm all about making decisions that make my life easier, and this is one of those decisions. I prep Honey Sriracha Chicken on the weekend for freezing, and then the night before I'm going to make it for dinner, I pull it out of the freezer and put it in the fridge. After cooking this I save 7-9 pieces to make this super delicious pizza later on in the week. Did I mention that it's delicious? The creamy alfredo sauce, fresh spinach, the chicken, and lately I've added a few thin onion slices to it and I love it. You really should try this pizza. You're going to love it!
Pizza Dough Crust
Shredded Honey Sriracha Chicken
Mozzarella Cheese
Spinach
Alfredo Sauce
Onion slices (optional)
Olive Oil
Garlic Salt
Turn the oven on 475 degrees Fahrenheit. Cut the dough ball in half and spread out the dough on your pizza pan or peel or parchment paper. Lightly grease the ouster edge and sprinkle with garlic salt. Swirl a thin even layer of alfredo sauce to the edge of the oil. Sprinkle several ounces of mozzarella evenly on the pizza. Layer out the spinach and then sprinkle with chicken. Add onion slices if using, and then add another couple of ounces of mozzarella.
Bake the pizza until the cheese begins to bubble and brown slightly and the crust should be golden brown. Remove pizza and carefully slice it. Enjoy!
Use the other half of the dough to make another delicious pizza.
