Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 4 whole wheat 8" tortillas
- 1 pack 8 wedges The Laughing Cow Light Queso Fresco & Chipotle cheese spread
- 1 lb chicken breasts grilled
- 1 Tbsp taco or fajita seasoning optional
- 1 batch of Pineapple Pico de Gallo
Instructions
- Pound out each chicken breast so it is tender and grill until cooked thoroughly, about 4 minutes on each side. I used pre-marinated chicken breasts from the deli section, but you could just use plain chicken or season it with a bit of taco or fajita seasoning.
- Spread two wedges of cheese on half of each tortilla. (I have found that the Carlita brand tortillas crisps up nice for a wheat tortilla, which some other brands do not.)
- After the chicken has cooled for 5 minutes, slice up each breast into thin strips and place on top of the cheese. Fold the tortilla in half and spray each side with pan spray or brush with olive oil.
- Grill the quesadillas on each side for 2 minutes until crispy and hot.
- Remove from the heat and slice into three sections. Serve with a generous helping of Pineapple Pico de Gallo piled on top!
