Chicken Quesadilla

I had a chance to taste burrito from chipotle  and ever since am hooked up on Mexican dishes. Might be since their flavour is close to Indian flavour. When we were in Chicago we had chipotle across the street and i wouldnt miss a single chance to get their burritos. I wanted to try making burritos long back, but i was little reluctant. The other day i found this recipe to make quesadilla by chef Jason Hill in food tv,until then i dint know making quesadilla was such a easy thing. This might not be authentic mexican quesadilla but it was worth the try. I made slight changes to the recipe. So here goes the recipe:-)

Ingredients:

Tortilla - 1 (store bought)

Cream cheese- 1 tbsp

Cheese - pepper jack (or)cheddar

Green onion- 1 chopped (fine)

Cilantro - handful (finely chopped)

Picked Jalapenos - 2 tsp

5.Apply the cream cheese on one side of the tortilla. Sprinkle some cheese on one half of the tortilla(i used mix of pepper jack & cheddar).
