These Grilled Chicken & Vegetable Quesadillas are a delicious and healthy way to enjoy a classic Mexican dish. Packed with grilled chicken, colorful vegetables, and gooey cheddar cheese, they are perfect for a quick weeknight dinner or a casual get-together with friends and family.

Ingredients:

  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 green bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 red onion, sliced
  • 1 zucchini, sliced
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup salsa
  • 4 whole wheat tortillas
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat

Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper

Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes per side or until cooked through

Remove from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it into strips

In a large bowl, toss the sliced red and green bell peppers, red onion, and zucchini with olive oil, salt, and pepper

Grill the vegetables until they are tender and slightly charred, about 3-4 minutes per side

Place one tortilla on the grill and sprinkle with a quarter of the shredded cheddar cheese

Add a quarter of the grilled chicken strips, grilled vegetables, and salsa on top of the cheese

Place another tortilla on top and press gently with a spatula

Grill for about 2-3 minutes per side or until the tortilla is crispy and the cheese is melted

Repeat the process with the remaining tortillas and fillings

Slice the quesadillas into wedges and serve hot
