Quesadilla for fringes


Chicken Quesadilla

Lisa has moved in last week and she's settling in just fine. It's kinda nice to have her around, she's a good kid and I have no doubt she's going to be amazing in the near future. She has a classmate, Hiro, who is a hair stylist in Chelsea. I really needed to trim my bangs or fringes as they call it here..fringes..weird word..anyhoo, so we made a trade off: My food for his cut. I was tired (from watching 24 of course, season 6 now!!) and I wanted to make something quick and tasty so I decided to make chicken quesadilla. It's fast and it taste amazing and only needed minimal ingredients. The key of the quesadilla was the sauce that goes on the tortilla. I'm shameful to say that I used to love Taco Bell's quesadilla. It had a soft sauce to prevent the quesadilla from being so dry. So using the wonderful tool of Google, I found some recipes. I made a mayonnaise sauce by using low fat mayonnaise, chili powder, cayenne powder, paprika, sugar, and 1/2 of lime. I was suppose to use jalapeno juice from canned jalapenos but couldn't find any..so I used lime. Mix everything together and leave it to sit for about 20 min for the flavor to sink in and that's it. After that, grill the chicken, sautee some onions, set everything aside to prepare the quesadilla. Use one tortilla, a dollop of sauce, top with onions and chicken and cheese, and grill it on low heat, flip it once and ready to serve.

My bangs look great, Hiro looks full enough and I've made my next appointment with him. Everyone's happy!
