Ingredients

    1 boneless, skinless chicken breast
    4tsp Old El Paso Taco Seasoning
    Scallions, 2 Tbsp finely chopped
    2 Whole Wheat Tortillas
    Mexican Style Taco Cheese, 1/2 cup
    2 Tbsp fat free sour cream (optional)

Directions

Cut chicken (boneless, skinless breast) into 1/4" slices. Sprinkle both sides with taco seasoning (I use up to 4tsp for flavoring, but you're welcome to use more). Be sure to evenly coat chicken strips with seasoning. Heat medium skillet with 1-2 Tbsp of olive oil, cook chicken thoroughly (about 7 minutes depending on how thick you cut the chicken). Set aside.

Finely chop scallions (green onions). Set aside.

In medium skillet, lightly sprayed with non-stick cooking spray, place 1 wheat tortilla. Keep heat med-low. Sprinkle 1/4 cup of shredded cheese evenly across the tortilla. Next, layer chicken strips evenly on ONE HALF of the tortilla. Next sprinkle 1.5 tbsps of scallions and remaining cheese on top of the chicken strips. When cheese has started to melt, use a spatula to fold over the cheese covered half of the tortilla. Wait 2-3 minutes, and flip quesadilla.

Slide onto plate and cut into four triangles. Top with 1-2 tbsp of sour cream (optional) and sprinkle with remaining scallions.
