Preparation
- In a large bowl, toss the chicken with salt, chili powder, garlic powder, cumin, and a pinch of extra salt. Let it marinate for about 10 minutes.
- Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken and cook for about 6 minutes until cooked through and golden brown.
- Add diced red bell pepper, sliced onion, and minced garlic to the skillet. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until tender and fragrant.
- Remove chicken from skillet, chop into bite-sized pieces, and combine with sautéed veggies, chipotle chilis, and cilantro.
- In a small bowl, mix Greek yogurt, lime juice, a pinch of salt, and chipotle sauce until smooth. Set aside.
- Lay out the tortillas, sprinkle cheese on one half of each, add the chicken mixture, and top with more cheese. Fold over.
- Wipe the skillet clean, add more olive oil, and fry each quesadilla for 3-4 minutes per side until golden and crispy.
- Transfer cooked quesadillas to a cutting board, let rest, and cut into wedges for serving with chipotle dip.

Notes
