Recipe: at dinner Smoky Quesadillas Chicken & chorizo / Jackfruit & veggie sausages Delicious, fresh and tasty.
Smoky Quesadillas Chicken & chorizo / Jackfruit & veggie sausages. These spicy chicken, melting cheese and kidney bean quesadillas are baked in the oven to make them lighter than the usual grilled or fried version. Chicken breasts - they're leaner than thighs so with the fatty cheese it's a good balance.; Chili powder and ground cumin - these are classic Mexican spices that add lots of flavor.; Salt and pepper - used to season the filling.; Olive oil - you only need a little to saute the chicken.; Bell pepper - I like to use a blend of red and green but any color. Great recipe for Smoky Quesadillas Chicken & chorizo / Jackfruit & veggie sausages.

I’ve now made this recipe using shop bought small tortillas.
There's a slight bit of tomato as well as a smoky flavor.
The tortillas themselves are tasty, basically like a standard tortilla.
One thing both my husband and I noticed is the ends of the tortilla become quite hard and very crispy when baked, too hard for our liking.
The middle portion of the tortilla becomes slightly after baking crisp but is.
You choose whether you want it smoky or zesty by the flavor of petite diced tomatoes you use.
