I love Taco Bell’s Chicken Quesadilla’s! Well I found a fabulous recipe that I thought I would share with you all! They have a little kick, but it isn’t that bad, as I am not a lover of super hot things.  I found a Copy Cat Taco Bell Chicken Quesadilla recipe on Food.com and changed it just a little bit.

Pro Tip:

This is not needed but it does make life easier! I LOVE the Quesadilla Makers, they give your tortilla the perfect crust in minutes! Plus if you want a small quesadilla just fold it in half  to cook. Best of all it is non-stick so the clean up is a breeze!

Ingredients: 

1/2 cup mayonnaise
3 tsp minced jalepenos
3 tsp jalapeno juice from minced jalepenos
1 tsp sugar
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1 dash salt

How To Make: 

1. Mix your spices and pepper juice, mayo and peppers all together! Everything above the line is used in the sauce. 
2.  Apply some sauce onto one side of the tortilla, and place it in a preheated skillet. Then apply 1 slice of the cheese, and add shredded cheese to your liking as well as the chicken.
3. Then Place the other tortilla on top, and allow it to cook for a few minutes until it is a little golden brown. Then you will flip the quesadilla over and allow it to cook on the other side.
4. Once it is done, put on plate and cut into pieces and enjoy!

As you can see this is super easy and pretty fast to make, and it makes for a delicious meal!! It is nice to be able to make these from time to time without having to leave the house!! I love the crispy texture of the tortilla and the spice in the sauce!
