Grilled Chicken and Black Bean Quesadillas image

I always make extra grilled chicken to be used in recipes like this a day or two later. The family really likes when I serve these. I do think the better the grilled chicken, the better the quesadilla. I usually make mine with Mirj's Recipe #15580 (that chicken is so versatile!) I'm very much into the habit of throwing this together so all measurements are approximate. Do more or less of anything that suits you better.

Time 35m

Yield 4-5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 large grilled chicken breasts, sliced and bite size
1 1/4 cups canned black beans, drained and rinsed
1/2 cup frozen corn, thawed
1 small onion, chopped
1 small green pepper, chopped
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
3 cups monterey jack and cheddar cheese blend
taco seasoning, to taste (or do a combo of chili powder, cumin, and garlic powder)
10 flour tortillas
sour cream, to serve on the side
salsa, to serve on the side

Steps:

  • Saute green peppers and onions in vegetable oil until softened.
  • Combine cooked peppers and onion with beans, corn, cheeses, and seasoning.
  • Spread some mixture over one half of a tortilla. Fold tortilla over to form a half moon and press around the edges.
  • Lightly spray or brush a skillet with vegetable oil.
  • Grill the quesadilla on medium to medium high heat. Each side takes about 3 minutes.
  • Do the same for the reaming mixture and tortillas.
  • It's easiest to use a pizza cutter to cut them into wedges.
  • Serve with sour cream and salsa.

These quesadillas were a bit bland for my taste. I think I would have liked them better if I had used a different type of cheese or added some salsa or guacamole.

These quesadillas were easy to make and turned out great! I used a rotisserie chicken and they were still delicious. I will definitely be making these again.

I'm not a big fan of quesadillas, but these were actually pretty good. The chicken was juicy and flavorful, and the black beans and corn added a nice sweetness and crunch. I will definitely be making these again.

These quesadillas were delicious! The chicken was cooked perfectly and the cheese was melted and gooey. I will definitely be making these again.

The chicken was a bit dry, but the black beans and corn were a nice touch. I would probably make these again, but I would use a different type of chicken.

I'm not a big fan of black beans, but I really enjoyed these quesadillas. The chicken was cooked perfectly and the cheese was melted and gooey. I will definitely be making these again, but I might use a different type of bean.

These quesadillas were a hit with my family! The chicken was juicy and flavorful, and the black beans and corn added a nice sweetness and crunch. The cheese melted perfectly and held everything together. I will definitely be making these again.
