I have never met anyone that doesn’t like Taco Bell. I am a fan of Taco Bell since the first time I step foot at their restaurant. I love everything on their menu! One of my top picks is their quesadilla. So believe me when I tell you that this copycat recipe of Taco Bell’s Quesadilla will make you love Taco Bell even more!
INGREDIENTS
Taco Bell Quesadilla Sauce:
2 teaspoons Minced Pickled Jalapenos
2 teaspoons Pickled Jalapeno Juice
1/2 teaspoon Cumin
2/3 teaspoon Sugar
1/2 teaspoon Paprika
1/8 teaspoon Garlic Powder
1/8 teaspoon Cayenne Pepper
1 Dash Salt
1/4 c. Mayo
Taco Bell Quesadilla:
1 Slice American Cheese
1 Chicken Breast
2 Flour Tortillas (Burrito size)
1 c. Cheddar & Monterey Jack Cheese (If you can’t find a bag that’s a mix, just buy them separately and use 1/2 c. of each)
How to make Copycat Taco Bell Quesadilla
Step 1: In a small bowl, add the Taco Bell Quesadilla Sauce. Mix well until blended and set aside.
Step 2: Sprinkle both sides of the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
Step 3: In a skillet, heat 1 ½ tablespoons of vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the chicken breasts to the skillet and cook until the internal temperature of the chicken reached 165 degrees F. Take the chicken from the skillet when done and slice thinly.
Step 4: On a hot skillet, place the tortilla. Add ¼ c. shredded cheese to the tortilla along with half slice of American slice. On top of the cheese, place half of the chicken.
Step 5: Spread around 1 ½ tbsp sauce on the other side of the tortilla. Now, fold the tortilla over and gently press using a spatula. Cook the quesadilla for about 2 to 4 minutes per side until the cheese has melted and bubbly.
Step 6: When done, remove the quesadilla from the pan and slice it into 4 pieces using a pizza cutter. Serve and enjoy!
