Making Quesadillas from Scratch: The Ultimate Batch Cook

This recipe requires a little time, but the payoff—and the money—is huge. We'll break down the process into manageable steps, so you can meal prep and earn your first payout this week.

Ingredients Checklist (For 8+ Servings)

• For the Chicken: Boneless, skinless organic chicken breasts, garlic cloves, avocado oil, poblanos, white onion, jalapeños, Monterey jack and Oaxaca cheese, fresh cilantro, lime.
• For the Tortillas: All-purpose flour, kosher salt, avocado oil or lard, very warm tap water.
• For the Filling: Sautéed onions and poblanos.

Step-by-Step Guide

1. Marinate the Chicken: Pound the chicken to about half an inch thick. In a large zippered bag, combine the chicken, minced garlic, avocado oil, and a pinch of salt. Massage it all together and refrigerate for 2-4 hours.
2. Make the Tortillas: Combine flour, salt, and warm water in a stand mixer. Knead for about two minutes until the dough is silky smooth. Divide the dough and let the pieces rest, covered, for 20-25 minutes.
3. Sauté the Vegetables: Heat avocado oil in a skillet. Sauté the white onions and poblano slices until they are tender (about 5-6 minutes). Season with salt and pepper. Let cool.
4. Cook and Assemble: Heat a cast iron skillet over medium heat. Lightly dust your surface and roll out the rested dough into 8-inch circles. Par-cook the tortillas (45 seconds per side). Spread the chicken mixture, the sautéed veggies, and the cheeses onto the tortillas. Fold and repeat until you have a full batch.
