Jack Bauer Quesadillas
These are in honor of our semi-yearly (January through May) commitment to spend at least one hour a week clenching our fists in tension as we wait to see what will unfold on the next season of 24. I made these one Monday night and they earned their moniker because they contain a jack with an intense kick!
Ingredients:
1 lb of chicken tenders
1 package of monterey jack cheese
1/4- 1/2 cup of store bought mesquite marinade
2-4 tablespoons of hot sauce
Jarred pickled jalapeno’s
1 package of tortillas
Sour Cream (optional)
Salsa (optional)
Instructions:
Dice chicken into bite size pieces. Place into a medium hot skillet with about 1/4 cup of the marinade. Add about 2 (or more) tablespoons of hot sauce to the chicken. Once the chicken is cooked through heat tortillas on a griddle or in a skillet. Place some chicken on one half of the tortilla, add some monetery jack cheese, and as many jalapeno’s as you like. Fold the empty half of the tortilla over the covered half. Slice and dip in sour cream or salsa.
