Ingredients

  • 8 small tortillas
  • 160 g strong hard cheese grated
  • 1 large cooked chicken breast or 2 small ones, sliced OR 200g drained black beans (veggie option)
  • 1/2 green pepper diced
  • 1/2 jar Baxters Deli Toppers Spicy Slaw
  • 1/2 red onion sliced into thin rings
  • 1 small green chilli finely sliced (optional)
  • To garnish:
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped parsley or coriander
  • Drained sweetcorn
  • Chilli sauce

Instructions

  • Heat the griddle for several minutes until very hot.
  • Meanwhile scatter half of the grated cheese on four of the tortillas.
  • Arrange on top of this, chicken slices (or black beans), chopped pepper, a few sliced red onion rings and a tablespoon of Deli Toppers Spicy Slaw. Add green chilli if you want it extra hot.
  • Scatter over the remaining half of the cheese and press down the last four tortillas on top.
  • Place each filled pair of tortillas, one pair at a time, onto the hot griddle. Toast on each side for 2-3 minutes until the cheese has melted and black stripes scorched underneath.
  • Flip the tortilla over gently with a spatula and toast the other side.
  • To serve, cut the quesadillas into triangles and drizzle with chilli sauce, sweetcorn and chopped coriander or parsley.
