Believe me it turns out to be yummy. Plus its soo easy to make at home. Try it out and tell me..... ;-)
For home-made Tortillas you will need:
2 Cups of flour
1 Tea.sp baking powder
1-2 Serving spoons of oil
A pinch of salt
Warm water
Kneed all the ingredients and make small balls. The recipe churns out almost ten. Set aside to let them rise.
For Spicy Salsa:
2-3 Tomatoes
2-3 Onions
A few Green chillies
3/4 tsp Salt or according to taste
Black pepper for seasoning
Oregano leaves
1-2 tsp Sugar
4-5 Tbsp Vinegar
Few drops of Lemon Juice
Red pepper flakes
Finely chop onions and tomatoes. Sote' onions in a bit of olive oil in a pan. When they are still white and fluffy add tomatoes and let it simmer over low flame for a few minutes. Meanwhile add and mix all the spices. Finally throw in julienne cut green chillies. When the tomatoes are tender turn off the heat. Although Mexican cuisine makes little use of spices, you can add them up according to your taste like myself :-) I added some Red Pepper Flakes and chilli powder as well. It turned out to be yummy...
Quessadilla Filling:
Half kg Boneless Chicken
About 2 tsps of Garlic paste (I put in a bit more.I love garlic)
Salt, Black pepper, Red Chilli flakes According to taste. Dont add too much as it will spoil the taste.
Braze chicken along with the chunk of garlic paste and a lil bit olive oil in a skillet over slightly lower than medium flame. Keep stirring and pressing lightly. Add salt, black pepper, red chilli powder/flakes. Cook till tender and done. In another pan, add a bit of olive oil and fry capsicums on medium flame.season with salt, pepper and lemon.
Shred the chicken to smaller bits if too chunky. Mix the chicken, capsicum and some of the salsa.
Take the tortilla ball and roll it flat and round on a smooth surface and cook it on a pan from one side. Dont over cook it. Then take some chicken filling and put it on the cooked side of the tortilla. Cover it with another tortilla and cook the sandwich on a pan from both sides till the tortillas are done. Prepare all others and slice them into half. Serve Hot with Salsa....
Done ;-)
