Weight Watchers Chicken Quesadilla Directions:
- Season the cooked chicken breast with Mexican spices like chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, and paprika. Shred the chicken and set aside.
- Lay one tortilla flat and sprinkle half of the shredded cheddar cheese over one half.
- Layer half of the shredded chicken, diced bell peppers, onions, and black beans on top of the cheese.
- Spoon half of the salsa over the mixture.
- Fold the tortilla in half to create a half-moon shape.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly spray with cooking spray or olive oil spray.
- Cook the quesadilla for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy, and the cheese is melted.
- Repeat with the remaining ingredients to make the second quesadilla.
- Slice the cooked quesadillas into wedges and serve hot with optional toppings like avocado, Greek yogurt or low-fat sour cream, fresh cilantro, and lime wedges.
