Fiery Hawaiian Chicken Quesadilla




Fiery Hawaiian Chicken Quesadilla

Ingredients:
Medium/Large soft tortilla shells
3 boneless skinless chicken breasts
3+ strips bacon
Red bell pepper
8 oz. can of pineapple tidbits
Shredded mexican or colby/jack cheese
Hot sauce/wing sauce


1.  Drain pineapple tidbits and set aside.

2.  Remove seeds and rind from the bell pepper, then dice.

 3.  Cook your bacon in a 10-inch skillet on medium heat until brown and crispy. 

4.   Remove bacon from skillet and place on paper towels to absorb grease.

5.  Cut chicken breasts into bite-size pieces and add to the same skillet the bacon was cooked in.  Cook on medium heat until cooked through. *While cooking, season with salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder. (optional)
 
6.  Remove chicken from skillet and place into a medium-sized bowl.  Coat with your favorite hot sauce.
*I highly recommend Louisiana Supreme Chicken Wing Sauce in Original or Garlic.  Sold at Dollar Tree for $1.  I also add in a little Texas Pete and Tiger Sauce for a little more heat and sweetness.

7.  Heat a new large skillet on medium heat to cook your quesadillas.

8.  Gather all of your ingredients.

9.  Spray one side of your tortilla with non-stick cooking spray.  Flip over and fill one half of the tortilla with all of the ingredients.
*I do cheese first, everything else in the middle, then a little more cheese on top.





10.  Fold over the empty side of the tortilla and carefully place into your skillet.  Cook on each side for 3 minutes or until golden brown.
*Multitask!  Prepare the next quesadilla while one is cooking!


11.  Once golden brown on both sides, the cheese should be nicely melted.  Remove from skillet and cut into 3-4 pieces with a pizza cutter.  Enjoy!
