Ingredients

  • 300 g Cooked chicken See notes.
  • 8 Tortilla wraps
  • 200 g Tinned sweetcorn Drained.
  • 400 g Black beans Drained and rinsed.
  • 200 g Cheddar cheese
  • 200 g Salsa
  • 4 Tomatoes Finely chopped.
  • 2 tsp Ground cumin
  • 2 tsp Paprika
  • 2 tsp Sunflower oil

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 200C.
  • Mix the tomatoes with the salsa. Set half aside to serve with the finished quesadillas.
  • Lay the tortillas out on a non-stick baking sheet.
  • Top with all of the fillings, including half of the tomato and salsa mixture (sprinkle the cumin and paprika over everything).
  • Wrap the tortillas up and brush the top with the oil.
  • Place a sheet of baking paper on top and another (heavy!) baking sheet on top.
  • Bake for about 25 minutes or until they are cooked through and golden.
  • Serve with the rest of the salsa and tomato mixture.

Notes

Chicken: I bought 2 chicken breast and roasted them until cooked through, then cooled and chopped into chunks. You could use ready cooked chicken if you prefer.
