Recipe Instructions:

  1. Begin by heating the vegetable shortening in a large pan over medium to high heat.

  2. Once the shortening has melted, add the chopped chicken pieces to the pan. Stir in the chopped onions and parsley.

  3. Cook the chicken mixture until the chicken is fully cooked, typically around 5 to 10 minutes. Ensure there is no pink left in the chicken.

  4. Once cooked, strain the mixture to remove excess oil. This step is crucial to prevent the quesadillas from becoming soggy.

  5. Lay out one tortilla and evenly spread the cooked chicken mixture over it.

  6. Sprinkle half a cup of Sargento cheese over the chicken, ensuring to leave more cheese in the center for even melting.

  7. Next, evenly distribute the chopped bacon over the cheese layer.

  8. Place the second tortilla on top to cover the filling, then lightly coat both sides of the quesadilla with oil.

  9. Heat a griddle or large flat pan over medium heat. Place the quesadilla on the griddle and cook until the outside becomes lightly browned on both sides, approximately 4 minutes per side.

  10. Flip the quesadilla and cook for an additional 3 minutes on the other side.

  11. Once cooked, remove the quesadilla from the griddle and cut into triangle slices resembling pizza.

  12. Serve and enjoy one of the best quesadillas ever created!
