INGREDIENTS
4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves 1 tablespoon olive oil salt & freshly ground black pepper 1 canned chipotle chile in adobo, drained and minced 1?4 cup sour cream 1?4 cup mayonnaise 1 tablespoon lime juice 1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro 8 (6 inch) corn tortillas 2 cups grated monterey jack cheese pico de gallo or other salsa
DIRECTIONS
Brush chicken breasts with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Lay chicken on a grill over medium heat (you can hold you hand 1 or 2 inches above grill level only 4 to 5 seconds) or put chicken in a grill pan over medium heat. Cook chicken 4 to 5 minutes per side, or until cooked through (cut to check). Slice cooked chicken breasts into 1/4 in.-thick slices. Keep grill or grill pan hot. In a small bowl, whisk together chipotle chile, sour cream, mayonnaise, lime juice, and cilantro. Spread 1 tablespoon chipotle-lime sauce on each of the tortillas. Top 4 of the tortillas each with 1/2 cup cheese and a quarter of the chicken slices, then cover with the remaining tortillas (sauce side down). Put each quesadilla on a dinner plate. Slide quesadillas off the plates onto the grill over medium heat, or slide into a grill pan over medium heat (you may need to grill the tortillas in batches). Grill uncovered turning once, until cheese is melted and both sides are golden, about 2 minutes each side (use a large spatula and tongs to flip the quesadillas). If grilling in batches, keep finished quesadillas warm in a 200 degree oven until ready to serve. Slice each quesadilla into wedges and serve with salsa on the side.
