Ingredients
Method
Preparation
- Dice the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
- Add the chicken pieces and season them with cumin, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
- Cook the chicken until it’s golden brown and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
- Remove the cooked chicken from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the chopped bell peppers and diced onion. Sauté them over medium heat until they become soft and fragrant, about 5 minutes.
Cooking Quesadillas
- Heat another skillet over medium heat. Lay one low-carb tortilla flat in the skillet.
- Sprinkle half of the tortilla with a mix of shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheeses.
- Add a scoop of the cooked chicken and sautéed vegetable mixture on top of the cheese.
- Then sprinkle more cheese over the chicken and vegetables. Fold the tortilla in half to cover the filling.
- Cook the quesadilla for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the tortilla is golden brown and crispy, and the cheese is melted inside.
- Carefully flip the quesadilla to avoid spilling filling.
- Remove the quesadilla from the skillet and slice it into wedges.
Notes
Serve with sour cream, salsa, or guacamole. Pair with a salad or sautéed veggies for a complete meal. Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days.
