Chicken Quesadillas

These are wonderful when made with the homemade tortillas. You'll need at least 8 tortillas to fill the pan. These are my husband's favourite. Very saucy and cheesy, with a little spicy kick from the green chilies.

1 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup green pepper
2 tbsp. butter
2 cups cooked chicken
1 can green chili peppers

1. Cook onion and green pepper with butter in a saucepan. Put aside in a bowl, mix in chicken and green chilies.


3 Tbsp. butter
1/4 cup flour
3/4 tsp. salt
1 tsp. ground coriander
1 cup sour cream
1 1/2 cups Monterrey jack cheese
2 1/2 cups chicken broth

1. Mix butter, flour, coriander and salt in to paste over medium heat in a sauce pan. Gradually add chicken broth and cook until thick and bubbly.

2. Remove from heat and add sour cream and 1/2 cup of cheese.

3. Take 1/2 of the sauce and add it to the chicken mixture.

4. Take a few spoonfuls of sauce and spread over the bottom of a 9x13 pan. Lay down a layer of tortillas. Spread half of the chicken mixture over the tortillas, adding some more sauce on top.

5. Put down another layer of tortillas. Spread the rest of the chicken mixture on top, again adding more sauce.

6. Lay down the last layer of tortillas, spread the rest of the sauce over top. Add the rest of the cheese on top of that.

7. Bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes.
