Chicken Marinade

Method

Chicken Marinade Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a large bowl, combine the boneless chicken breasts, Frank's hot sauce, olive oil, garlic powder, and salt. Mix well to ensure the chicken is fully coated. Cover the bowl and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

Cooking the Chicken

  1. 2

    Grill the Chicken

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and juices run clear. Once cooked, remove from heat and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing into strips.

Quesadilla Assembly

  1. 3

    Prepare the Vegetables

    In the same skillet, add a little olive oil if needed. Sauté the sliced onion, red bell pepper, and green bell pepper over medium heat until they are soft and slightly caramelized, about 5-7 minutes.

  2. 4

    Assemble the Quesadilla

    On one side of each flour tortilla, layer the grilled chicken strips, sautéed vegetables, and shredded cheddar cheese. Fold the tortilla in half to cover the filling.

Cooking the Quesadilla

  1. 5

    Grill the Quesadilla

    Wipe the skillet clean and heat it over medium heat. Place the folded quesadilla in the skillet and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the tortilla is golden brown and the cheese is melted.

Serving

  1. 6

    Serve the Quesadilla

    Remove the quesadilla from the skillet and let it cool slightly before cutting into wedges. Serve with a dollop of sour cream and a sprinkle of sliced black olives on top.
