Chicken Mushroom & Spinach Quesadillas - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 large white onion, chopped
8 ounces white button mushrooms, sliced (about 3 cups)
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 cups chicken breasts, boneless skinless, cooked & chopped
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon dried oregano
2 cups baby spinach leaves, sliced into strips
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
4 (10 inch) whole wheat tortillas
1/2 cup ranch dressing
1/2 teaspoon hot sauce
1 cup cheddar cheese (shredded) or 1 cup Mexican blend cheese
1/2 cup salsa
1/2 cup reduced-fat sour cream

Preparation

Heat the oil in a large skillet over a medium heat. Add the onions and mushrooms and cook until the mushroom water is evaporated and they begin to brown, 5 to 7 minutes.
Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute more. Add chicken, cumin, chili powder and oregano and stir until all spices are incorporated. Add spinach, salt and pepper and cook until spinach is wilted, about 2 minutes.
Mix ranch dressing with hot sauce.
Lay 1 tortilla on a flat work surface, spread 2 tablespoons of hot ranch sauce on each tortilla, and sprinkle with 1/4 cup shredded cheese.
Spoon 1/2 chicken and vegetable mixture on top of cheese, then top with an additional 1/4 cup cheese. Top with another flour tortilla.
Heat a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray over medium heat. Carefully place 1 quesadilla in pan and cook 3 minutes. Using a large spatula, gently flip quesadilla and cook an additional 3 minutes until lightly browned and cheese is melted. Repeat with second quesadilla.
Slice each quesadilla into quarters. Serve with sour cream and salsa for dipping.
