Ingredients Needed Blackstone Quesadillas

• Flour tortillas - I really like these Carb Counter or Ole Extreme Welness Tortillas
• 2 to 3 teaspoons of fajita seasoning
• Reduced-Fat Cheese has a lower calorie count and less saturated fat than regular cheese, but it may also have a different taste and texture. It also helps with keeping the calorie count pretty low for this recipe. 
• Cooked Chicken breasts - They’re lean and quick-cooking and always come out juicy and tender. Use an instant-read thermometer to make sure that the chicken is not over cooked.  When reading labels for chicken breasts try to find ones that say Organic or Free Range. You can get a rotisserie chicken and shred that up or use bag s of precooked grilled chicken.

Substitution Tips

• Chicken: Use rotisserie chicken, Easy Blackstone Chicken Breasts (Griddle Recipe), grilled chicken, or swap with ground turkey or beans for a vegetarian version
• Tortillas: Sub in low-carb, whole wheat, or WW-friendly tortillas to reduce points
• Cheese: Use reduced-fat shredded cheese or part-skim mozzarella to lighten it up
• Add-ins: Sneak in spinach, corn, black beans, or any leftover veggies
• Sauce: Mix in a spoonful of Greek yogurt, salsa, or light cream cheese into the chicken for a creamy twist

How to Make Blackstone Chicken Quesadillas

Step 1: Place a tortilla onto the blackstone and sprinkle with shredded cheese one side of the tortilla. Add a scoop of the chicken.

Step 2: Cook the quesadilla for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the cheese is melted and the tortillas are crispy.

Repeat with the remaining tortillas, chicken and, and cheese.

Serve the quesadillas with salsa, sour cream, and guacamole for dipping.
