Ingredients

  • 1.8 kg Boneless, skinless chicken breast (Raw weight)
  • 1.5 packets Chipotle seasoning (For seasoning the chicken; homemade or Cholula Chipotle Seasoning)
  • 1 tsp Olive oil
  • 400 g Low-fat cottage cheese
  • 2 tsp Chipotle seasoning (Cholula; for the sauce)
  • 80 ml Light mayonnaise (Heinz)
  • 2 Garlic cloves
  • 0.5 lime Lime juice (Juiced)
  • 2 tsp Chipotle peppers in adobo sauce (La Costena)
  • 80 ml Buffalo sauce (Frank's RedHot Buffalo Sauce)
  • 100 g Honey
  • 40 g Light grated cheese (For mixing into the chicken filling)
  • Chives (Diced; amount not specified)
  • 10 Tortillas (Mission Carb Balance; warm before filling)
  • 40 g Light grated cheddar cheese (Bega 50% Less Fat; listed per quesadilla in source)

Steps

  1. 1

    Season the chicken breasts with the chipotle seasoning and olive oil, then mix well to coat.

  2. 2

    Cook the chicken covered over medium heat for 8–10 minutes per side, or until fully cooked. Shred it using two forks.

  3. 3

    Put the cottage cheese, chipotle seasoning, mayonnaise, garlic, lime juice, chipotle in adobo, Buffalo sauce, and honey in a blender. Blend for about 2 minutes, until smooth and creamy.

  4. 4

    Combine the sauce with the shredded chicken, diced chives, and 40 g light grated cheese. Mix until the filling is evenly coated.

  5. 5

    For each quesadilla, add a layer of the 40 g light grated cheddar cheese to half of a warm tortilla. Add one-tenth of the chicken filling, then another layer of cheese, and fold the tortilla in half.

  6. 6

    Toast each folded quesadilla in a pan until golden brown and crispy on both sides. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.

Notes

The transcript says the quesadillas can be frozen for months and reheated in 5 minutes. The source does not specify a reheating method or storage packaging. It lists 40 g of cheddar “per quesadilla,” while the ingredient list also says 40 g total; the listed quantity is preserved as written, so the amount for the outer cheese layers is ambiguous.
