Chicken Quesadillas

1 pkg. (10) flour tortillas
1 (1 lb.) block Monterey Jack cheese*
1 can diced green chile peppers
3-4 boneless chicken breasts
Butter

Shred cheese. Drain chiles. Pan fry, in a little butter, the chicken until done. Cool and cut into very small pieces, almost shredded. On one tortilla layer shredded cheese, sprinkle diced green chiles and cover with chicken. Place in frying pan greased with butter. Place another tortilla on top. Cook on both sides like a grilled cheese. Makes 5 quesadillas. Cut each into 4 or 6 triangles. Serve hot with salsa and/or guacamole and sour cream. *For spicier recipe - get Monterey Jack with jalapenos.
 
Hey Ray...I am lazy so mine is even easier. Use leftovers! Sprinkle leftover chicken and cheese on a tortilla, fold and fry. Flip and fry some more. Eat with salsa and sour cream on the side. Yum!
 
We made these for the first time. Ours was a little lazy, no frying of the finished product. We did fry the chicken and add cubed avocado, spring onions or scallions, cilantro/coriander, and mozzerella cheese in place of monterey jack. We served it with homemade cranberry relish which was really nice.
