Grilled Chicken Quesadilla Bowl
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 2 cups shredded Mexican cheese blend
- 1 cup diced tomatoes
- 1 cup diced bell peppers
- 1/2 cup diced red onion
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 avocado, sliced
- Sour cream and salsa for serving
Instructions
- In a large bowl, toss the sliced chicken with olive oil, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until well coated.
- Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken and cook for 5-6 minutes, or until cooked through and slightly charred. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Place a large skillet over medium heat. Place one tortilla in the skillet and sprinkle with 1/2 cup of shredded cheese. Top with a quarter of the cooked chicken, tomatoes, bell peppers, and red onion. Sprinkle with another 1/2 cup of shredded cheese and top with another tortilla.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the bottom tortilla is golden brown and crispy. Carefully flip the quesadilla and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes on the other side. Remove from the skillet and repeat with the remaining tortillas and ingredients.
- Once all the quesadillas are cooked, carefully slice them into wedges.
- To assemble the bowls, divide the quesadilla wedges among 4 bowls. Top with sliced avocado, chopped cilantro, a dollop of sour cream, and a spoonful of salsa.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
