Go To Quesadillas

This recipe is an original from my house so I thought it fitting that it would be the first recipe posted. It is gobbled up so fast, you'll wonder why you didn't think of it yourself!

6 burrito size tortillas (the thicker the better)
3 boneless skinless marinated chicken breasts cubed cooked and then shredded (recipe follows)
1 container of onion and chive cream cheese
1 bag of Mexican style shredded cheese
1 stick of butter

****Cook chicken thoroughly, add equal parts honey and lemon juice, 1/4 C soy sauce and crushed red pepper to taste. Cook uncovered until liquid has rendered...then shred in your chopper or food processer. This combination of flavors is the best for this recipe.

Place pat of butter in a skillet over medium heat. Spread cream cheese over half of a tortilla and place cheese side UP in the skillet. Sprinkle shredded chicken over cream cheese. Top chicken with shredded cheese and fold over the "bald" side of the tortilla and let sizzle a bit. Flip over to cook other side and let cheese melt. Place on a paper towel and cut with a pizza cutter into four even triangles. Serve with salsa and sour cream!

Les gives this recipe 10 out of 5 DELISH points!
