Pesto Chicken Quesadillas
- PREP 5min
- COOK 5min
- TOTAL 10min
We love these easy pesto chicken quesadillas. I know pesto chicken sounds a little strange to be putting pesto into a quesadilla, but trust us, it works. Pesto is flavor overload — check out our homemade pesto recipe to see.
You Will Need
8 (6-inch) flour tortillas, see our homemade flour tortillas recipe
4 tablespoons basil pesto, see our homemade pesto recipe
1 cup shredded cooked chicken, see our shredded chicken recipe
1 cup packed spinach leaves
3/4 cup shredded cheese like Monterey Jack or cheddar
Directions
Heat a heavy-bottomed skillet over medium heat.
Divide the pesto, chicken, spinach, and cheese between four tortillas. Top with a second tortilla then add to the pan and cook, flipping once, until the cheese has melted and the tortillas are toasted on both sides, about 5 minutes.
