Little Luis Chicken Quesadillas
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon sofrito (recommended my blend; alternatively Goya Sofrito)
- 3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, diced
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 cup white wine
- 1/2 cup chicken broth (recommended: organic)
- 1/2 packet Latin seasoning mix
- 1 large onion, sliced
- 8 large flour tortillas
- Grated Cheddar
- Grated pepper Jack cheese
- Sour cream and salsa, for serving
- Preheat a large Dutch oven on medium heat.
- Add the olive oil and sofrito and stir-fry until golden.
- Add the diced chicken and stir-fry until partially cooked; the meat should be a bit pink.
- Add the salt, pepper, garlic powder, white wine and chicken broth.
- Mix well, cover and allow to braise for about 10 minutes.
- Remove the cover, add the Latin seasoning and the sliced onion; mix well.
- Cover for 5 more minutes to soften the onion.
- Remove the cover and raise the heat to high to reduce the cooking liquid; approximately 5 minutes.
- Remove the pot from the heat and set aside.
- Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Take 1 flour tortilla and fill with the chicken mixture and some of the grated cheeses.
- Fold in half and place on the skillet adding a heavy object on top such as a cast iron skillet of smaller size.
- This will help sear the outer tortilla while quickly melting the cheese on the inside.
- Remove the skillet, flip over and sear the other side.
- Continue cooking the quesadillas this way until all have been cooked.
- With a pizza cutter slice into wedges and serve with a side of sour cream and store bought salsa.
