Quick and Easy Chicken Quesadillas

Imagine. It's Friday night and you don't feel like cooking. What's a good alternative to eating out? How about chicken quesadillas? Sure, you don't get the complimentary sopapillas or chips and salsa like you do at the restaurant, but they sure are yummy! Serve with a side of refried beans, boxed spanish rice, or guacamole salad. Or, if your kids are like mine, just slice up some cucumbers and put them on the plate.


Quick & Easy Chicken Quesadillas

1 large bnls, sknls chicken breast (about 12 oz.)
1/2 to 3/4 c. salsa
cumin
1-1/3 c. shredded cheese
4 large flour torillas (white or whole wheat)

Cut chicken breast into several large pieces. Place in saucepan and spoon salsa over top. Cover and simmer over medium heat for about 10-15 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through. Shred and return to saucepan and mix with the salsa left in pan. Generously sprinkle with cumin (maybe 1/8 tsp.?) Mix well. Into each tortilla, spoon 1/4 of mixture on half and top with 1/3 c. cheese. Place in frying pan over medium heat. Cook until tortilla is lightly browned on bottom, then flip and cook other side. Remove from pan, cut and serve.
