How to make Mexican Chicken Quesadillas:
In the following image you can see the ingredients that we will need to prepare these delicious Mexican chicken quesadillas. We are going to start the Mexican quesadillas recipe by washing and finely chopping the vegetables, that is, the onion, the red tomato and the cilantro. Once the vegetables are ready, we take the onion and the red tomato, and fry these ingredients in a pan with hot oil to start preparing the chicken quesadilla filling.
When the onion is transparent, add the chicken cut into fajitas or strips and perfectly seasoned. Let everything cook together, constantly moving the preparation with a spatula or wooden spoon. Once the chicken is almost completely cooked, add the chopped cilantro and let it all cook together for 5 more minutes. After this time, we remove the preparation from the fire and reserve a moment. On the other hand, we take pieces of panela cheese, place them inside the corn tortilla and take the quesadillas to the hot grill to melt the cheese. This is the only ingredient that cannot be missing in Mexican quesadillas, so we recommend that you do not ignore it. When the cheese is practically melted, we fill the quesadillas with the chicken stew and close them again. If you want, you can reheat them for a few more seconds so that the cheese finishes melting, or consume them as is. As you can see, these chicken quesadillas are an easy and ideal recipe to enjoy with the family, accompanied by a red taquera sauce or guacamole.
