This Sheet Pan Quesadillas with Chicken recipe is a family favorite, combining gooey cheese, seasoned chicken, and vibrant ingredients for a delightful weeknight meal.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 9 (8-inch) flour tortillas
  • 16 ounces shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup tomatoes, chopped
  • 1/2 cup green onions, chopped
  • 1/2 cup cilantro, chopped (optional)
  • 2 cups shredded chicken
  • 1 (15-ounce) can pinto beans
  • 1 cup frozen corn
  • Homemade chipotle sauce
  • Sour cream
  • Lime slices

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Lay four tortillas on the baking sheet and sprinkle half of the cheese on top.
  • Add shredded chicken, tomatoes, green onions, and pinto beans over the cheese layer, then sprinkle corn on top.
  • Sprinkle the remaining cheese over everything and place the remaining tortillas on top, pressing down gently.
  • Bake for 20 minutes until golden brown and cheese is bubbling.
  • Let cool for a few minutes, then cut into wedges and serve with sour cream and lime slices.

Notes

Consider using corn tortillas for a gluten-free version.
To save time, rotisserie chicken works wonderfully for this recipe.
For an extra kick, add diced jalapeños to the filling.
