INGREDIENTS:
3 Diego’s Food Service 10-inch Tortillas or 4 Diego’s Classic, Low Carb, or Gluten-Free Wraps
4 cups Shredded Chicken Carnitas
4 tbsp olive oil or vegetable oil
4 fully packed cups grated cheese (Mozzarella or Mexican style)
1 ½ cups peeled and diced sweet potato
⅓ cup fresh coriander leaves, rinsed and patted dry
1 ½ cups of your favorite salsa verde or salsa fresca & basic guacamole (see Diego's website for recipes)
INSTRUCTIONS:
Warm the Tortillas/Wraps
Follow the packet instructions to warm the tortillas or wraps in preparation for making quesadillas.
Assemble the Quesadillas
Lay each tortilla/wrap flat on a cutting board.
Place equal portions of grated cheese, shredded chicken carnitas, diced sweet potato, and coriander leaves on half of each tortilla.
Gently fold each tortilla in half to form a half-moon shape.
Cook the Quesadillas
Heat 1–2 tbsp of oil in a frying pan over medium heat.
Depending on the size of your pan, cook 1–2 quesadillas at a time, placing them so that the straight edges of each half-moon shape are next to each other.
Cook each quesadilla for 30–60 seconds per side, flipping when golden brown.
Serve & Enjoy
Transfer cooked quesadillas to a cutting board, slice into triangles, and serve topped with salsa & guacamole.
🌮 Gluten-Free Option: Use Diego’s Gluten-Free Wraps and follow the same process for easy folding and cooking.
