Mexican Chicken Quesadilla

Ingredients:
Tortillas - 12
Shredded cheese - 1 cup
cooked Chicken pieces - 1 and 1/2 cups
Salsa - 1 cup

To make the cooked chicken:
In a pan add a tsp of butter and boneless chicken, pepper powder -1/4tsp and little salt. Let it boil and cook. When it is done chop it into bite size pieces.

To make salsa:
Shallots(small onions) - 3
Tomato - 1
Jalapeno - 1
Cilantro(coriander leaves) - 3 strands
Lime juice - 3 tsp
Salt - 1 pinch

Chop the shallots, tomato, jalapeno and cilantro finely. Put it in a blender and bled it for 3 SECONDS. If we do it more than that, it will becme paste. We don't want it like that. After blending it add lime juice and salt. While using it in the quesadilla, strain the juice out of the salsa.


Quesadilla

Heat the pan, spread some butter or oil, place the tortilla and sprinkle about 2tsp of cheese and let it  melt. Then keep it aside in a separate plate. Again,  place another tortilla and sprinkle about 2tsp of cheese and let it  melt. Then spread little salsa and some shredded chicken. Now bring the tortilla from the plate and close it on top of the chicken. Wait until the cheese melts and blends. Cut it into 4 and serve.
