I've had this recipe saved for over a year now. After organizing my recipe binder, I pulled it out knowing it would be a perfect summer dish. And that (plus grocery shopping) is all I did for this dinner. I have to give all the credit to my husband for making it. I was working away and he was asked offered to make dinner. He did a fabulous job. I love the kick the pepper jack gave this dish along with an added sweetness of the peaches. A wonderful combination. The recipe is from Cooking Light. Enjoy!
Ingredients
1 teaspoonhoney
1/2 teaspoonfresh lime juice
1/2 cupreduced-fat sour cream
4 (8-inch) flour tortillas
3/4 cup(3 ounces) shredded Monterey Jack cheese with jalapeño peppers
1 cupchopped skinless, boneless rotisserie chicken breast
1 cupthinly sliced peeled firm ripe peaches
4 teaspoonschopped fresh cilantro
Cooking spray
Preparation
1. Combine honey and lime juice in a small bowl, stirring well with a whisk. Stir sour cream into honey mixture; cover and chill until ready to serve.
2. Place tortillas flat on a work surface. Sprinkle 3 tablespoons cheese over half of each tortilla; top each tortilla with 1/4 cup chicken, 1/4 cup peaches, and 1 teaspoon cilantro. Fold tortillas in half.
3. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Coat pan with cooking spray. Place 2 quesadillas in the pan, and top quesadillas with a cast-iron or other heavy skillet. Cook 1 1/2 minutes on each side or until tortillas are crisp and lightly browned (leave cast-iron skillet on quesadillas as they cook). Remove quesadillas from pan; set aside, and keep warm. Repeat procedure with the remaining quesadillas. Cut each quesadilla into wedges. Serve with sauce.
This looks DELISH! I must try this!
