Here is a quick weeknight dinner for you. By using rotisserie chicken, it is fast and the chicken is more flavorful. I was afraid that it would overflow. So, I only used half of the milk and flour. Also, I didn't have a 10" tortilla. So, I used 3- 6" tortillas and overlapped them. Serve the with extra salsa and sour cream.
Chicken and Cheese Quesadilla Pie
1 (10-inch) flour
1 rotisserie chicken, skin discarded, meat shredded (about 3 c)
1/2 c finely chopped fresh cilantro
1/2 drained jarred pickled jalapenos, chopped
2 c shredded sharp cheddar cheese (divided)
salt and pepper
2 large eggs
1 c whole milk
1 c flour
1 tsp baking powder
1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Grease a 9-inch pie plate. Press the tortilla into pie plate and spray lightly with cooking spray. Toss chicken, cilantro, jalapenos, 1 c of the cheese and 1/2 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp pepper in a large bowl until combined. Spread filling over tortilla.
2 Whisk eggs, milk, flour baking powder and 1/2 tsp salt in a bowl until smooth. slowly pour over filling, then sprinkle with the remaining cheese. Bake until surface is golden brown, about 20 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes. Cut into wedges and serve.
