STACKED CHICKEN QUESADILLAS
This is a really easy recipe that you change up any way you want it. If the pieces were cut small, this would also be great for tailgating or parties. I found that a really sharp knife cuts through the layers better than a pizza cutter. I make mine a little different than the recipe states -- I cooked my chicken using recipe #234465, then I put the cut-up chicken and the can of tomatoes and chilies in a saucepan and just let it simmer on low heat for a bit. It worked really well. I also used shredded taco cheese instead of the cheddar and American cheese. I place the tortillas side-by-side on a cookie sheet. After baking, I stuck them under the broiler for a minute or two to crisp up the top. I really think these make more than 4 servings -- more like 6 or so.

[email protected]I thought these quesadillas were just okay. The chicken was a bit dry and the cheese wasn't melted all the way through. I also found the recipe to be a bit bland. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

[email protected]These quesadillas were so good! I made them for my friends and they all loved them. The chicken was tender and juicy, and the cheese was melted and gooey. I will definitely be making these again.

[email protected]I've made these quesadillas several times now and they're always a crowd-pleaser. They're perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal or for a party appetizer. I like to use a variety of cheeses, such as cheddar, mozzarella, and pepper jack.
