Chicken Mushroom Spinach Quesadillas
Very simple and tasty chicken, mushroom, and spinach quesadilla, with melted cheese and spicy ranch sauce. Served with sour cream and salsa for dipping. I serve these as a snack or with salad or soup for lunch or a quick dinner.
Steps
Heat the oil in a large skillet over a medium heat.
Add the onions and mushrooms and cook until the mushroom water is evaporated and they begin to brown , 5 to 7 minutes.
Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute more.
Add chicken , cumin , chili powder and oregano and stir until all spices are incorporated.
Add spinach , salt and pepper and cook until spinach is wilted , about 2 minutes.
