    List of Ingredients




    Grilled Chicken Quesadillas from David

    1/3 cup lime juice
    2 tablespoons olive oil
    2 teaspoons dried or 1 tablespoon minced fresh marjoram
    1 teaspoon salt
    1 teaspoon pepper
    1 1/2 pounds skinned and boned chicken breasts
    12 (6-inch) flour tortillas
    Cilantro-Pecan Pesto
    1 cup (4 ounces) shredded Mexican four-cheese blend
    Toppings: Salsa Picante, sour cream, chopped cilantro

    Recipe



    Combine first 5 ingredients in a shallow dish or zip-top freezer bag; add
    chicken. Cover or seal, and chill 2 hours. Remove chicken from marinade,
    discarding marinade.
    Grill chicken, covered with grill lid, over medium-high heat (350° to 400°) 4
    minutes on each side or until done. Cut chicken into thin strips.
    Top 1 side of 6 tortillas evenly with Cilantro-Pecan Pesto, cheese, and
    chicken. Top with remaining tortillas.
    Cook quesadillas in a lightly greased skillet or griddle over medium-high
    heat (350°) 2 to 3 minutes on each side or until browned. Cut each quesadilla
    into quarters. Serve with desired toppings.

    Yield: Makes 6 servings
