Chicken Fajita Quesadillas
I really think every day should be Cinco de Mayo! It is such a fun, festive holiday that involves two of my favorite things – Margaritas and Mexican food! Quesadillas are the perfect celebration food. They are also a Russo family favorite. I like to think of them as a Mexican grilled cheese. Obviously made with tortillas instead of bread, quesadillas are so versatile because you can add so many different ingredients to them, serve them as a main dish/sandwich or make them ahead of time and serve as an appetizer or snack at your next fiesta. Plus, they are really easy to make.
Chicken Fajita Quesadillas combine the traditional quesadilla ingredients with the traditional fajita ingredients. It’s a marriage of sorts. A tasty marriage at that. The combination of onions, peppers and chicken with the traditional fajita flavoring is delicious.
Begin by heating a skillet
Remove from the skillet once the onions start to turn translucent. Now you can add the chicken to the skillet and brown over medium high heat. You can also do this in a grill pan
Now it’s time to assemble the quesadillas. Turn heat to medium and add some oil to the pan. Add one tortilla to the bottom and add some cheese, chicken, and vegetables. Add some more cheese and then top another tortilla. Cook several minutes until bottom is brown and cheese is melted. Flip the quesadilla so the top side can brown using a spatula.

However you are planning to celebrate Cinco de Mayo, hopefully it will involve good times, great food and these Chicken Fajita Quesadillas. Oh yeah, don’t forget the margaritas
