P Mac's Quesadillas

Price McAllister

1/2 Green Pepper
1/2 Onion
1/2 TBSP butter
1 can black beans
Tortillas
Sour Cream
Cheese
Chicken (boneless skinless breasts)

Season the chicken with garlic salt, onion powder, cumin, season salt and pepper to taste.  2 breasts is usually enough for 2 people, so plan accordingly.

Start the chicken cooking in a skillet with some olive oil to keep it from burning. At the same time, add the butter and the green pepper and onion into a separate pan. Sweat the peppers and onions until they are tender enough to break with minimal effort.

The chicken should be jsut about finished. Once it is done, separate it using two forks in teh pan. Once the chicken is separated, warm a tortilla on a griddle until it is soft. Place the ingredients on one half of the tortilla in this order: Cheese, chicken, peppers+onions, beans, more cheese.  Fold the tortilla in half.

Spray a griddle with Pam or grease it with butter. If you have a panini grill, then spray the upper and lower portions of the grill. Put the quesadilla on the grill or griddle and either shut the lid or put something heavy on it, preferably something that can take a little heat (an old plate works well). If you have to use the plate method, flip the quesadilla once the cheese starts to melt and the tortilla is a little crispy.  Done-zo.
