Crafting Culinary Excellence: Keto Chicken Quesadilla

Ingredients:

  1. 1 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
  2. 1 bell pepper, thinly sliced
  3. 1/2 yellow onion, thinly sliced
  4. 1/2 tsp. chili powder
  5. Kosher salt, to taste
  6. Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  7. 3 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  8. 3 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  9. 4 cups shredded chicken
  10. 1 avocado, thinly sliced
  11. 1 green onion, thinly sliced
  12. Sour cream, for serving

Directions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 400ºF and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a skillet over medium-high heat, warm the olive oil. Add the sliced onion and bell pepper, then season with chili powder, salt, and pepper. Sauté until the vegetables are tender, approximately five minutes. Transfer to a plate.
  3. In a bowl, combine the shredded Monterey Jack and cheddar cheeses. Divide the cheese mixture evenly between the prepared baking sheets, shaping each into a circle roughly the size of a flour tortilla.
  4. Bake the cheese until melted and slightly golden around the edges, about eight to ten minutes. Remove from the oven and top one half of each cheese “tortilla” with shredded chicken, sautéed onion-pepper mixture, and avocado slices. Allow to cool slightly.
  5. Using a spatula and the parchment paper for support, gently fold the unfilled half of each cheese “tortilla” over the fillings, creating a quesadilla. Return to the oven for an additional three to four minutes to heat through. Repeat the process to create two more quesadillas.
  6. Slice each quesadilla into quarters and garnish with sour cream and green onion before serving.
