Chicken Quesadillas

 This is another recipe that my friend had shared with me. I did change the recipe a bit but only for the chicken. This is makes a great meal whether it's lunch, dinner or a snack.


Chicken brine:
2 1/2 cups Water
1 1/2 tsp Salt
1/2 tsp Pepper
1/16 tsp Cayenne pepper
1/2 tsp Red pepper flakes
1/4 tsp Garlic powder
1 Chicken bullion cube

In baking dish combine all of the ingredients and then add the chicken. Let it sit for several hours or overnight



Ingredients:
6 Strips of Bacon, diced
1 Red Pepper
1 tbsp Garlic, minced
1/2 Onion, chopped
Cheddar
Chicken breasts or tenderloins
Tortillas 

Take chicken and brine water and add the minced garlic and red pepper and place into the oven at 350 for an hour or until it becomes tender and falls apart.

Remove chicken from the oven and tear into pieces. Remove red peppers as well.

In a skillet cook bacon and onion until tender and done. Remove from skillet

Lay large tortilla flat and on half of the tortilla place cheddar, then chicken, then red peppers, then bacon and onions and then topped with cheese and then fold over the tortilla so that it looks like half of a circle.

In a large fry pan melt a tbsp butter and heat the quesadilla on low-med heat until cheese melts and tortilla is slightly browned.
