This grilled chicken quesadilla uses quality ingredients for an all-time favorite snack or meal. Chef Maribel puts all the love in the details, using her signature achiote marinade on the chicken, which is complemented by caramelized onion, poblanos, and tomato in the filling. Melty Oaxaca and pepper jack cheeses add richness, and a lightly toasted flour tortilla envelops all these tasty ingredients. Served with a side of roasted tomato salsa and Mexican red rice with corn, carrots, and peas, this is everything you want and more.
