Spicy Chicken Quesadilla

What is a better way to stuff friends than be feeding them spicy chicken Quesadillas? I guess I could take notes from the movie Seven and tie my friend up and then stuff her until she dies but what's the fun in that? Stuff 'em good first and then let the fun begin.....Here are the steps to ensure your friends will be fully filled to the point of almost death once they're done eating your food.

Forbid them from eating all day. Should they argue with you, tranquilize them. I'm sure you can go to a hunting equipment shop and find the appropriate items needed to follow through with this plan. DO NOT SKIP THIS STEP, even if it gets you in jail. You want your friend to be full, right? Just trust me on this one, okay?

When they are passed out, stroke their hair. I'm kidding, just kidding. Not going to grow up to be a serial killer, I swear. 

But while your friend is passed out, mix and cook and stir and mix your food some more until your food is done cooking. Then slip into a scary costume, maybe like the ghost mask guy from the Scream. Do not laugh during this process, you want to scare the living shit out of your friend.

Wake them up once you are done cooking and while they are in the midst of opening their eyes, jump from behind them, scare them and then bring your food to them. Tell them if they don't eat until they feel like they are about to die, make them sit through Scream (the original 1996 movie, not the garbage that got released after that). Then, with your mask on, begin chuckling loudly. If that doesn't scare your friend shitless into eating your food, I don't know what else will. Well, option 2 is that you could just make something delicious that your friend will willingly eat without all the theatrics (though more boring option). Here is option 2 for all of you out there that like to play it safe.

Ingredients


1 tablespoon canola oil
1 large onion, chopped (about 2 cups)
8 ounces white button mushrooms, (about 3 cups)
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 cups cooked chopped skinless, boneless chicken breast (1 breast half)
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon dried oregano
2 cups baby spinach leaves, sliced into ribbons
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
4 (10-inch) whole-grain flour tortillas
1 cup shredded Mexican cheese mix or Cheddar
1/2 cup salsa
1/4 cup reduced-fat sour cream

Instructions

1. Heat the oil in a large skillet
over a medium heat. Add the onions and mushrooms and cook until the mushroom water is
evaporated and they begin to brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1
minute more. Add chicken, cumin, chili powder and oregano and stir until all spices
are incorporated. Add spinach, salt and pepper and cook until spinach is wilted, about
2 minutes.

2. Lay 1 tortilla on a flat work surface and sprinkle with 1/4 cup shredded cheese. Spoon
1/2 chicken and vegetable mixture on top of cheese, then top with an additional 1/4
cup cheese. Top with another flour tortilla. Heat a large nonstick skillet with
cooking spray over medium heat. Carefully place 1 quesadilla in pan and cook 3
minutes. Using a large spatula, gently flip quesadilla and cook an additional 3
minutes until lightly browned and cheese is melted. Repeat with second quesadilla.
Slice each quesadilla into quarters. Place 2 quarters on a plate with 1 tablespoon
sour cream and 2 tablespoons salsa.

I'm totally kidding around in this entry so please, don't harm your friends. Not cool. Just feed them something delicious!
