Preparation Steps

1

Prepare the Chicken

In a bowl, mix the chicken breast with chipotle sauce, salt, and black pepper. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.

2

Cook the Bacon and Onions

In a skillet, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove and set aside. In the same skillet, add olive oil and sauté the sliced onions until caramelized.

3

Grill the Chicken

Grill the marinated chicken over medium heat for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked. Once done, slice into strips.

4

Assemble the Quesadillas

On one half of each tortilla, layer the grilled chicken, bacon, sautéed onions, and a mix of Pepper Jack and Cheddar cheeses. Fold the tortilla over.

5

Cook the Quesadillas

In a clean skillet, cook each quesadilla over medium heat for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the cheese is melted and the tortilla is golden brown.

6

Serve

Cut the quesadillas into wedges and drizzle with Chipotle BBQ sauce. Serve with salsa and sour cream on the side.
