To make this Tasty Cheese Shelled Keto Chicken Quesadillas, your preheat oven to 400 F. Then, cover a pizza pan with Parchment Paper (NOT wax paper). Mix the Cheeses together, then evenly spread them over the parchment paper (in a circle shape). Bake the cheese shell for 5 minutes. Pour off any extra oil as soon as it comes out of the oven. Then, place the chicken over half of the cheese shell.  Add the sliced peppers, diced tomato and the chopped green onion. Fold the Cheese shell in half over the chicken and veggies. Press it firmly, then return it to the oven for another 4- 5 minutes. Serve with sour cream, salsa and guacamole. Garnish with chopped fresh basil, parsley or cilantro.

You may recall that I fell in love with these pre-made low carb pizza crusts recently when I made my Chicken Alfredo Pizza. I was honestly surprised that they were so good and could handle all the toppings we put on them. Since then, they’ve become a staple in my house. And they are so thin and flexible, I was quite certain that they would make amazing keto chicken quesadillas too.

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 bell pepper, sliced
  • 1/2 yellow onion, sliced
  • 1/2 tsp. chili powder
  • Kosher salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 3 c. shredded Monterey Jack
  • 3 c. shredded cheddar
  • 4 c. shredded chicken 
  • 1 avocado, thinly sliced
  • 1 green onion, thinly sliced
  • Sour cream, for serving

DIRECTIONS

  1. Preheat oven to 400º and line two medium baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium skillet over medium-high heat, heat oil. Add pepper and onion and season with chili powder, salt, and pepper. Cook until soft, 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate. 
  3. In a medium bowl, stir together cheeses. Add 1 1/2 cups of cheese mixture into the center of both prepared baking sheets. Spread into an even layer and shape into a circle, the size of a flour tortilla.
  4. Bake cheeses until melty and slightly golden around the edge, 8 to 10 minutes. Add onion-pepper mixture, shredded chicken, and avocado slices to one half of each. Let cool slightly, then use the parchment paper and a small spatula to gently lift and fold one side of the cheese "tortilla" over the side with the fillings. Return to oven to heat, 3 to 4 minutes more. Repeat to make 2 more quesadillas.
  5. Cut each quesadilla into quarters. Garnish with green onion and sour cream before serving.
