Who else loves Mexican style and Tex Mex recipes?
My boys love Tex Mex everything. So this week, when I wanted to whip up something quick and easy, I went with these cheesy chicken quesadillas because they’re hearty and filled with all those wonderful Tex Mex flavors we love.
The key to this super easy recipe is the chicken. These quesadillas are loaded with shredded chicken. Even better, I use a Rotisserie chicken from the deli department at my local grocery store to save on cooking time. It cuts way down on prep time and, since the Rotisserie has all those wonderful flavors already, it saves time on extra seasoning, too.
Seriously, picking up a Rotisserie chicken from the deli department at your local grocery store is a win-win for any meal plan. They are filled with flavor and are super versatile for all sorts of recipes, too. So go ahead right now and add a Rotisserie chicken to your shopping list so your don’t forget.
Here’s the best secret, though, to this one. For the cheesy chicken quesadillas, I also add a little cream cheese. That’s another quick tip that’s makes a huge difference for quick and easy chicken. Most recipes I’ve used in the past were a little too dry for my taste or too soggy when adding extra salsa. That’s why I add a touch of the cream cheese. It makes the chicken mixture nice and creamy and spreads nicely on each tortilla. With all this flavor and creaminess, you don’t even need guacamole or sour cream. All of the creamy goodness on these cheesy chicken quesadillas is already packed inside.
