Ingredients 

US CustomaryMetric

Servings: 24 servings

Creamy Filling

• 4 cups cooked chicken, shredded 
• 1/2 white onion, diced 
• 1 tomato, diced 
• 1 tsp ground guajillo
• 1 tsp smoked paprika
• 1/2 tsp ground garlic
• 1/2 tsp ground cumin
• 1/2 cup sour cream
• 1/4 cup mayonnaise
• To taste Salt to taste

Cheese

• 8 oz cheddar cheese, grated  
• 12 oz oaxaca cheese, grated

Additional items

• 12 flour tortillas, halved
• Pico de gallo
• Mexican salsa

Instructions 

• Preheat the oven to 375°F
• Make the filling: in a large bowl combine all of the ingredients until well mixed in. In a separate bowl, combine both cheeses until well distributed. 
• Take each half of the tortilla. Spread the cheese and filling. Roll in a cone, starting from the cut side. Make sure the filling stays inside. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper and place a ramekin in the center. Create a ring of quesadilla cones around the ramekin. Sprinkle cheese over them and make a top ring over the bottom ones. Remove the ramekin. 
• Bake until the filling is heated through, cheese has melted and the edges are crispy. It will take 15-20 minutes. Serve on the sheet-pan (be careful, its hot.) Or, let it slightly cool down and transfer onto a platter. Fill the ramekin with salsa or pico de gallo, and place in the center of the quesadillas. ENJOY!
