Sweet, smoky, and slightly spicy quesadillas filled with BBQ chicken, melted cheese, and sautéed vegetables for an easy, flavor-packed meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
  • 1 cup BBQ sauce
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 teaspoon hot sauce
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 cup sliced red onions
  • 1/2 cup chopped bell peppers
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Sour cream and guacamole for serving (optional)

Instructions

1. In a medium bowl, combine shredded chicken, BBQ sauce, honey, and hot sauce. Mix until evenly coated and set aside.

2. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add onions and bell peppers and sauté for about 5 minutes until softened. Season with salt and pepper and remove from heat.

3. Lay a tortilla flat and sprinkle cheddar and mozzarella over half of it.

4. Add a layer of BBQ chicken, followed by sautéed vegetables and a sprinkle of cilantro.

5. Fold the tortilla in half over the filling.

6. Cook the quesadilla on a skillet or griddle over medium heat for about 3 minutes per side until golden brown and the cheese is melted.

7. Remove from heat and let cool slightly before slicing into wedges.

8. Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling.

9. Serve warm with sour cream and guacamole if desired.

Notes

Use spicy BBQ sauce for extra heat or adjust hot sauce to taste.

Try different cheese blends for varied flavor.

A squeeze of fresh lime juice adds brightness before serving.

Quesadillas can also be grilled for a smoky flavor.

Leftover filling works great in tacos, wraps, or sandwiches.
