Pico de Gallo Chicken Quesadillas

This is the BEST Pico de Gallo topping I’ve ever had. It’s massively better than any canned or jarred sauce you could buy. Don’t skip it, it makes a world of difference! 

Ingredients
2 tomatoes, diced
1 onion, finely chopped (Optional only!!! - I don’t use it) 
2 limes, juiced
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced
salt and pepper to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cut into strips
1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
6 (10 inch) flour tortillas
1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
1/4 cup sour cream, for topping

Directions

1.In a small bowl, combine tomatoes, 1/2 of the onion, lime juice, cilantro, jalapeno, salt and pepper. Set aside.
2.In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add chicken and saute until cooked through and juices run clear. Remove chicken from skillet, shred and set aside.
3.Put the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in the hot skillet and saute the other half of the onion and green pepper until tender. Stir in the minced garlic and saute until the aroma is strong. Mix in half of the pico de gallo and chicken breast meat. Set aside; keep warm.
4.In a heavy skillet, heat one flour tortilla. Spread 1/4 cup shredded cheese on the tortilla and top with 1/2 the chicken mixture. Sprinkle another 1/4 cup cheese over the chicken and top with another tortilla. When bottom tortilla is lightly brown and cheese has started to melt, flip quesadilla and cook on the opposite side. Remove quesadilla from skillet and cut into quarters. Repeat with remaining ingredients. Serve quesadillas with sour cream and remaining pico de gallo.
