Preparation

Step 1

Heat one tablespoon of oil in a skillet over medium high heat. Add the onions and cook until they begin to caramelize. Mix in the honey and stir until it is golden brown.
Remove from skillet and set aside.
Spray the skillet with cooking spray and add the chicken. Cook through over a medium high heat. Stir in the BBQ sauce to evenly coat the chicken. Remove from skillet.
Stove-top method: (Do this after you’ve cooked the onions and chicken.) Spray your skillet with non-stick spray. Place tortilla in skillet and sprinkle cheese over the whole thing. Then, on just half of the tortilla, spoon the onions and chicken. Let it heat through a little until the cheese is melted and the tortilla starts to brown a bit. Then, fold it in half, let it sit for a minute and that’s it. The tortilla will be crispy on the outside while the cheese is melted and gooey inside. Repeat for the next quesadilla, if desired.
