Zubereitung von Authentic Style Chicken Quesadilla
- In a medium saucepan, combine 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes, 1 cup chicken broth, ½ cup salsa, 1 jalapeño (minced), 1 teaspoon ground cumin, 2 cloves garlic (minced), and ½ teaspoon salt. Bring to a boil.
- Add 1 ½ cups cooked chicken, cut into bite-sized pieces, to the boiling sauce.
- Immediately reduce heat to low-medium and simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened. Simmer longer for a deeper flavor.
- Heat ½ tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium-low heat.
- Place one slice of American cheese in the center of each flour tortilla.
- Using a slotted spoon, remove chicken pieces from the sauce, allowing excess liquid to drain.
- Place the chicken on top of the cheese in the tortilla.
- Fold the tortilla in half to form a quesadilla.
- Cook the quesadillas for 1-2 minutes per side, or until golden brown and the cheese is melted and gooey.
- Serve immediately with your favorite guacamole and a side salad. Enjoy!
