Ingredients
- 300 g Cooked chicken (Approx 2-3 breasts)
- 400 g Black beans (Drained and rinsed)
- 340 g Sweetcorn (1x tin | Drained and rinsed)
- 1/2 Red onion (Peeled and finely chopped)
- 2 tsp Fajita seasoning
- 2 tsp Sunflower oil
- 8 Large flour tortillas
- 200 g Grated mozzarella
Method
- In a large bowl, mix the chicken, beans, sweetcorn, onion and fajita seasoning.
- Preheat 1/2 tsp of the oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat.
- Sit one tortilla in the pan, sprinkle over a small amount of the cheese (about 25g/1oz - no need to weigh but just as a guide!)
- Spoon on a quarter of the chicken and bean mixture. (Youโll need to work reasonably quickly here so the bottom doesnโt start to burn.)
- Sprinkle another 25g/1oz of cheese on top and sit another tortilla on top. Use the bottom of a clean saucepan to weigh down the quesadilla.
- Cook on that side for 3 minutes, then remove the saucepan and carefully flip over. Cook for another 3 minutes.
- Repeat this process to cook all of the quesadillas.
- While you are cooking them, keep the others warm on a plate covered with tin foil OR keep warm in the oven on a very low heat.
