tsp. chili powder

cups frozen corn, thawed, drained

Make It

PREHEAT broiler. Spray large nonstick skillet with cooking spray. Heat on medium heat. Add chicken and chili powder; cook and stir 2 minutes. Add corn and 2 Tbsp. of the salsa; cook and stir 3 minutes or until chicken is cooked through and sauce is thickened.

SPRAY tops of 4 of the tortillas with cooking spray. Place, sprayed sides down, on large foil-covered baking sheet. Sprinkle with half of the cheese; top with chicken mixture, remaining cheese and remaining tortillas. Spray tops of tortillas with cooking spray.

BROIL, 4 to 5 inches from heat, 3 minutes or until golden brown. Turn quesadillas over with large spatula; continue broiling an additional 3 minutes or until second side is golden brown and cheese is melted. Cut each into 4 wedges. Serve with the remaining salsa.

Kraft Kitchens Tips

Serving Suggestion

Serve these main-dish quesadillas with a mixed green salad tossed with your favorite KRAFT Dressing.

Creative Leftovers

This is a great use for leftover cooked turkey. Just substitute 1 cup chopped cooked turkey for the chicken. Mix with chili powder, corn and 2 Tbsp. of the salsa in skillet; cook until heated through, stirring occasionally. Continue as directed.

You could cut the calories by using fat free tortillas and low fat mexican cheese. If you are watching your carbs, use the low carb tortillas.

Very good. The rule of thumb is all things in moderation. You can cut your serving in half and eat a larger salad to cut carbs. Or, you can use the low carb tortillias which would cut the carb count greatly. You could also leave out the corn and substitute with green and red peppers. It is a great basic recipe that you can change and adapt to your own lifestyle.

Very good! Quick to make and tasts great. And because they are individual servings, they are easy to customize (onions, peppers, etc). Made it Friday night and my husband wanted it again the next night!

I used whole kernal corn with green peppers and pimentos and it was excellent.
