Chicken al Pastor Quesadillas

Chicken al Pastor Quesadillas

Sweet, tangy and spicy chicken al pastor with pineapple in quesadillas with plenty of melted cheese!

Quesadillas are always amazing! Toasty tortillas stuffed with melted cheese only get better when filled with chicken al pastor and pineapple! Whenever I make a Mexican style meat, such as chicken al pastor, I like to make a large batch to ensure leftovers for use in quesadillas the next day! Quesadillas are as easy to make as placing a tortilla a into a skillet, sprinkling on cheese, followed by the meat and any other fillings, more cheese and another tortilla and toasting until the tortillas a crispy and the cheese is melted! They make for a quick and easy lunch, snack, dinner or even breakfast! Yum!
