Ingredients:
- 1/2 teaspoons - chili powder
- 1/4 teaspoons - ground cumin
- 1/4 teaspoons - salt
- 1 1/4 pounds - chicken breasts thin-sliced
- 12 ounces - corn cooked
- 1 cans - black beans drained, rinsed
- 8 - burrito-size tortillas
- 2 cups - mexican cheese blend
- 3 tablespoons - lime juice
- 2 tablespoons - olive oil
Directions:
Whisk together marinade ingredients in small bowl. Set aside 2 tablespoons of marinade and then pour remaining mixture into a large resealable plastic bag with chicken. Refrigerate while heating grill to medium-high heat.
Combine corn and black beans in bowl along with reserved marinade and set aside.
Remove chicken from bag, discard the marinade and grill 'til cooked through, about 5-10 minutes. Slice into thin strips.
Place 2 tortillas on grill. Top half of each with 2 tablespoons of cheese, some of the chicken strips, about 1/4 cup of the corn mixture, and 2 tablespoons more of cheese. Fold in half and grill 1 minute; turn over and grill another minute. Repeat with all ingredients.
Serve quesadillas with sour cream and salsa, if desired.
