CHICKEN AND MUSHROOM QUESADILLAS WITH CARROT AND MANGO SLAW
These delicious quesadillas are packed with flavor thanks to lightly spiced chicken, mushrooms, spinach, and Monterey Jack cheese. A tangy mix of cilantro, yogurt, and lime juice makes the perfect dipping sauce, and pretty carrot and mango ribbons combine for a refreshing slaw.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Stir cumin, 3 Tbsp. oil, 1 tsp. salt, and 1/2 tsp. pepper in a large bowl. Add chicken and mushrooms and toss to coat. Spread on a rimmed baking sheet and roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part of thigh registers 165°F, 15-17 minutes.
- Meanwhile, juice limes to yield 6 Tbsp. juice. Blend yogurt, 3 Tbsp. lime juice, and 3 Tbsp. cilantro in a blender until smooth.
- Shave carrots with a vegetable peeler lengthwise into ribbons (or use the large holes of a box grater). Whisk 1 Tbsp. oil and remaining 3 Tbsp. lime juice, 1/4 tsp. salt, and 1/4 tsp. pepper in a large bowl. Add carrots and mango; toss gently to coat.
- Remove baking sheet from oven, arrange spinach over chicken, and continue to roast until spinach is wilted, about 2 minutes. Transfer chicken to a cutting board, leaving spinach on sheet, and thinly slice.
- Arrange tortillas on a work surface. Dividing evenly, layer cheese, chicken, mushrooms, and spinach on one side of each tortilla. Fold tortillas in half to create half-moons.
- Heat 1 1/2 tsp. oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-low until hot. Cook 2 quesadillas, turning once, until cheese is melted and tortillas are browned, 1-2 minutes per side. Transfer quesadillas to serving plates, then cook remaining quesadillas with remaining 1 1/2 tsp. oil.
- Sprinkle quesadillas with cilantro leaves and serve with yogurt sauce and carrot-mango slaw alongside.
- Do Ahead
- Chicken and mushrooms can be cooked and yogurt sauce can be made 4 days ahead; cover and chill.
CHICKEN QUESADILLAS
This is a great recipe for parties. I freeze the leftovers; they reheat quite well. The zesty chicken and cooked peppers are a succulent delight when mixed with the melted cheeses. Cut the quesadillas into wedges and serve with sour cream and salsa.

PEPPER JACK, CHICKEN AND PEACH QUESADILLAS
A delish and fast recipe using leftover chicken from Cooking Light August 2010. I really enjoyed these made with leftover turkey breast and I am sure chicken will be just as wonderful. They say, "Give average chicken quesadillas new life with sweet peaches and spicy cheese. For the kids, try Monterey Jack instead."
