How to Make Hawaiian Bbq Chicken Quesadillas

  1. Boil 1 chicken breast (frozen or thawed) in water for 15-20 minutes, or until cooked through. Check for doneness by cutting open the chicken.
  2. Shred the cooked chicken breast.
  3. In a medium bowl, combine the shredded chicken with 1/4 cup BBQ sauce, 1/4 cup chopped pineapple, and 1/4 teaspoon of garlic powder.
  4. Place 2 large flour tortillas on a flat surface. Divide the chicken mixture evenly between the tortillas, spreading it over one half of each.
  5. Sprinkle 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese over the chicken mixture on each tortilla.
  6. Fold the tortillas in half, pressing gently to seal.
  7. Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of butter or oil to the pan.
  8. Cook the quesadillas for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  9. Remove from heat, cut into wedges, and serve immediately.
