High Protein Cheesy Pepperoni Pizza Chicken Quesadillas
  1. Start by seasoning the chicken breast with salt, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, add olive oil & mix well.

  2. Using a stove with the pan on medium heat spray lightly with cooking oil & cook the chicken with a lid on for approximately 8 minutes per side or until fully cooked through, once cooked shred the chicken apart.

  3. Add the chicken back to the pan along with pizza sauce/marinara, light cream cheese, diced garlic, your choice of hot sauce (optional - can be left out or substituted for your choice of sauce), grated parmesan cheese, Italian herb seasoning & add some water to prevent the mixture from drying out.

  4. Mix well to combine, once creamy garnish with dried basil and set aside.

  5. Now cook some pepperoni slices using a pan on medium heat until they’re crispy.

  6. Place a warm tortilla down, add light cheddar cheese to one half of the tortilla along with a portion of the filling, some crispy pepperoni slices, more cheese & fold over.

  7. Toast on a pan on each side until golden brown & repeat for the other 9 quesadillas.
